Chapter 3
Waking up from a dream in the morning, Pingqiu turned over and looked in the direction of the curtains, drowsily thinking that it was dawn, and closed his eyelids heavily again.In less than half a minute, he sat up suddenly, groped around the bedside table to find his phone, and made sure that the time was not too late, only three to five minutes behind the usual time for getting up and washing. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, touched his cheek, got out of bed and walked out Room.
There was a noise in the kitchen, Ping Qiu got up in the morning and hadn't fully returned to his thoughts, when he got closer, he found that Xu Xiuyuan was leaning against the refrigerator to eat breakfast.He was reading a palm-sized author's notebook in one hand, and a half-eaten glutinous rice in the other hand. He turned his head and saw Pingqiu standing there. He closed the book and handed it over: "Sorry, I took you." books to read."
"It's okay, just watch it if you want, don't tell me specifically," Pingqiu glanced at the dining table, "Have you gone out to buy breakfast?"
"When I came back last night, I saw a breakfast stand outside."
"You bought breakfast, so what time did you get up?" Ping Qiu felt a little embarrassed, "I didn't even hear the sound, did I get up early? I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xu Xiuyuan didn't seem to care about his shame, but instead reminded him that time was tight.When Pingqiu heard about it, he hurried into the bathroom with his slippers on, washed and changed, and set off with his backpack within 10 minutes.Changing shoes at the door, Xu Xiuyuan handed him the packed breakfast, Ping Qiu thanked him, but saw that he also changed his shoes and prepared to go out, but asked him where he was going, Xu Xiuyuan said he didn't know, he would wait until he went out to see.
There are shared bicycles parked at the bottom of the building, Xu Xiuyuan rides quickly and steadily, and Pingqiu follows behind, sometimes reminding him to turn left or right at the next intersection.After passing the third traffic light, Xu Xiuyuan said that he was going to change direction, and Pingqiu watched him leave through the sidewalk first, and then went right to the institution.He parked the car downstairs and saw that there were seven or eight minutes left. He trotted to the convenience store to get a cup of sesame soy milk, and then walked back to clock in. The time was just right.
In most cases, during the weekdays, teachers will concentrate on making up lessons after two o'clock in the afternoon, and there will not be too many students in the morning, but sometimes a few students will come over for self-study.Leisurely in the morning, Ping Qiu sits at the front desk and eats breakfast. The glutinous rice siu mai has cooled down, and the soy milk is pressed, the taste is even more ordinary.While eating while using the computer, he choked and hiccupped twice.
After a while, I received a message from student Cheng Zinong, he wanted Pingqiu to take a mock exam from another region for him, saying that the questions were good, and the school teacher had taken the sample exams.Pingqiu has received the document and is waiting beside the printer.The mobile phone beeped twice, and Xu Xiuyuan and Lu Yang sent messages back and forth as if they had agreed, one reported that they were going to read in the library, and the other asked Pingqiu if he got up.
Pingqiu replied to Xu Xiuyuan first, thinking about it, and transferred 200 yuan to him.Xu Xiuyuan replied with a question mark, and he continued from below: Don't forget to eat lunch, you can also buy some books back.
Clicking on the chat box and sliding up and down, Pingqiu found that their chats before today were all cut up by horizontal bars marked with time. In most cases, Xu Xiuyuan sent monotonous holiday blessings before and after the festival, and Pingqiu's response was equally cold. Only under Xu Xiuyuan wishing him a happy birthday every year, he would politely add a hugging expression.Therefore, when Xu Xiuyuan, whom he had not seen for several years, suddenly appeared yesterday, although Ping Qiu was surprised, fortunately, he did not show too hurtful a sense of strangeness.
As for Xu Ruiyang's contact information, Ping Qiu deleted it completely after the two separated. Even the news of his marriage the year before last, Ping Qiu found out from Xu Xiuyuan's circle of friends that had not been updated all the year round.
After exiting the chat box, Lu Yang sent a few more messages because Ping Qiu didn't reply for a long time: I don't have classes after three o'clock today, so I'll pick you up for dinner tonight?
Pingqiu hesitated a bit, then remembered that Xu Xiuyuan would come over later, and asked if he could bring him along.Lu Yang readily agreed, and only asked Ping Qiu to wait at the door in the evening.
The weather was fine today and the sun was shining brightly. Xu Xiuyuan bought a black baseball cap when he was strolling around the mall and wore it as a shade.He blew the cold wind in the library for two hours, and then walked all the way back along the navigation. The shadows on the soles of his feet were long and short, and the mobile phone in his pocket was always jingling.
Obviously entrusted by his parents, Xu Ruiyang turned to put pressure on Xu Xiuyuan.It was true that their parents were divorcing, but the reason why Xu Xiuyuan ran away was far more than that. He even had a hand with Xu Ruiyang the night before he got on the train.
Both brothers were ruthless. Xu Xiuyuan rode Xu Ruiyang and punched him in the face hard. Night gasps for breath.Panting and panting, he laughed, his chest pumping like a strained bellows.The night wind blew his words into pieces, and Xu Xiuyuan slowly got up from the posture of kneeling on one knee, took a step, and grabbed his ankle again.He looked down at Xu Ruiyang's bruised and bloody face, and saw him looking back at him so jealously. Xu Xiuyuan's expression became a little distorted by the pleasure of revenge, even if Xu Ruiyang cursed him, "sooner or later, he will Regret" also made him unable to feel the fear at 01:30.In the end, it was Xu Xiuyuan who kicked him away, and Xu Ruiyang rolled half a circle, lying on his back laughing hoho.
After crossing the sidewalk, Xu Xiuyuan deleted Xu Ruiyang's chat box from the list again.
Cheng Zinong came here at two o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, Ping Qiu was helping a female classmate find the test papers. He was standing at the door of the office without saying a word, with his schoolbag on his back. .Seeing this, Pingqiu hurriedly handed him the whole pack of tissues, and closed the office door after seeing off the female classmate. Before he could turn around, someone rushed up from behind, with wet arms across his waist, and a posture that was getting tighter and tighter. , This caused Pingqiu to shrug his shoulders in fright, and break free in the next second.
He couldn't hide his astonishment, but when he saw Cheng Zinong's red eyes, he turned around when he asked the question: "...what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Zinong grabbed his arm and said in a low voice, "Teacher Qiu, help me."
"What are you helping me with? Did something happen to you?... You should be in school at this time, why did you come here suddenly? Is there any problem with the school?"
Cheng Zinong just stared at him, and Pingqiu couldn't help but touch his face, thinking that he had accidentally made an ugly face, subconsciously turned his face to the side, and automatically lowered his voice: "Do you want to give it to me?" Your mother calling?"
"No."
"But you are like this now—do you want to study by yourself here? Your class hasn't been scheduled yet, and the teacher is full today."
"I want to sleep here for a while."
"Is it here?"
Cheng Zinong said yes, Pingqiu had no choice but to lower the position of his swivel chair.Seeing that Cheng Zinong was drenched, he had no clothes in his office, but he had prepared a spring and autumn thin coat.He borrowed the clothes from him originally because he wanted him to wear his coat outside, but Cheng Zinong lifted up the short sleeves of his school uniform.
Ping Qiu quickly turned around and stood in front of the glass sliding door to cover him until Cheng Zi Nong said slowly.Looking again, his coat was zipped in half, leaving his neck and most of his chest exposed.Pingqiu felt a little funny, pointed to his neck and told him: "Pull it here."
Cheng Zinong didn't understand: "Pull what?"
Ping Qiu had no choice but to do it himself, pulling the zipper of his jacket all the way to his chin: "Aren't you cold just now?"
Cheng Zinong suddenly grabbed his arm, looked into his eyes and said, "Teacher, your back is wet too. I'm sorry, I just met you and made it."
No wonder the back felt a little chilly.Pingqiu twisted his shoulders uncomfortably, the wet part of the clothes sometimes stuck to the skin, and sometimes staggered.He said: "It's okay, I'll just wipe it off. Then you rest, I won't bother you."
"Will you call my mother?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Cheng Zinong asked anxiously.
"Don't you want to fight? Don't you want to tell me what happened today, even your mother?"
"I don't want to," Cheng Zinong shook his head, "If I want to tell you, I must tell you first."
Ping Qiu was embarrassed by his unconditional trust in him, and maybe he was a little worried that Cheng Zi Nong would say something inexplicable later, so he went out for an excuse, and when he came back, Cheng Zi Nong had already fallen asleep in the swivel chair.He moved lightly and put all the documents into the transparent bag.The posture of bending over made the half-wet clothes on the back stick to the flesh. Seeing that Cheng Zinong was indeed breathing steadily, Pingqiu pulled out two paper towels, and stood facing the sliding door with his back to Cheng Zinong, and put the paper towels into the clothes to wipe back.
The clothes were very damp, and it was always uncomfortable to stick to them. Pingqiu pulled the clothes very high, rubbed the paper towels up and down, tucked them into the clothes and pressed them to absorb the moisture.He was concentrating, watching to see if anyone was passing by the door.And Cheng Zinong was behind him, taking a panoramic view of Pingqiu's exposed waist and abdomen.
A few minutes before leaving get off work at five o'clock, Ping Qiu ordered Cheng Zinong's test papers at the front desk.While talking, Cheng Zinong bent down and got very close, Ping Qiu was a little uncomfortable, and kept calmly borrowing something to move to the side, when he saw Cheng Zinong suddenly stretched out his hand from the corner of his eye, he subconsciously avoided it, who knew Cheng Zinong I just want to use the fountain pen in the pen holder on the table to write the name on the test paper.
Cheng Zinong writes very carefully, and the characters are always small and narrow, and he likes to make the mark on the upper left side of the paper, Ping Qiu almost misses it many times.He stacked the completed test papers for Cheng Zinong, and gave him a green bookcase.Suddenly there was a shadow above his head, and when he looked up, Xu Xiuyuan was standing wearing a baseball cap, his face was slightly flushed from the sun.
Looking at the time, Pingqiu handed the test paper to Cheng Zinong: "The answers are all set for you later, it is very convenient for you to do it. That's it, if you still have questions, come to me again, is that okay?"
Cheng Zinong nodded: "Okay, thank you Teacher Qiu."
Ping Qiu smiled, and asked Xu Xiuyuan to wait here in a low voice, and he went to the big office to talk to the female teacher on duty before leaving.After a while, he came out with a backpack, Xu Xiuyuan handed him the paper bag in his hand, Ping Qiu asked what it was, and when he opened it, it turned out to be a white baseball cap.
He was surprised: "You went shopping and bought me a copy? Thank you."
As soon as the voice fell, a silver Audi stopped on the side of the road.The co-pilot lowered the window, and Lu Yang was beckoning.Ping Qiu walked away holding Xu Xiuyuan's forearm, Cheng Zinong was behind him calling the teacher goodbye, Ping Qiu turned around and shook his arm at him.When I got close to the car and looked at the driver's seat, it turned out that Zhou Chuan, Lu Yang's colleague and brother, was sitting.
Pingqiu greeted Zhou Chuan, and at the same time opened the door of the back seat, asking Xu Xiuyuan to sit in first.
Xu Xiuyuan didn't move, just looked at him.Then Pingqiu suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask Xu Xiuyuan's opinion in advance, so he scribbled to make amends: "We are going to eat hot pot at night, it is very close to home, and we will go home after eating. I was busy at work and forgot, I wanted to ask you —Then are you going?"
Lu Yang poked his head out from the co-pilot, and pulled Ping Qiu towards him to avoid the small electric motorcycle speeding behind him, and asked, "Can you go?"
"Are you going?" Ping Qiu asked.
"Go." Xu Xiuyuan glanced at Lu Yang's hand in Pingqiu's wrist, and agreed.
Zhou Chuan drives fast and steadily, and has always acted as a regular driver for their friends when they travel.Xu Xiuyuan sat on the other side of the back seat of the car, listening to the three of them talking about hot pot, work, and the outing that we went out together some time ago, none of which had anything to do with him.He also found Lu Yang's always looking here in the rearview mirror.
Lu Yang was not ashamed at being caught peeking, but after Xu Xiuyuan looked over, he naturally looked away and looked forward.
However, Pingqiu didn't feel so good.There are two kinds of car aromatherapy with strong smell in Zhou Chuan's car. After smelling them for a long time, he felt dizzy and nauseous. He was able to talk to the two people in front of him, but he just lay down by the car window to breathe the fresh air , The stomach is still rolling.
He lay by the window for a long time, Xu Xiuyuan saw his back twitch occasionally and his shoulders seemed to be trembling, so he moved his position to take a closer look.The wind blew the hair on the side of Pingqiu's face flying wildly, Xu Xiuyuan smoothed the hair around his ear: "Are you uncomfortable?"
Pingqiu frowned and nodded: "A little bit."
Lu Yang heard the movement in front and turned his head: "What's wrong?"
Waving his hand to indicate something trivial, Pingqiu turned his face sideways, put his left cheek on the back of his hand, half-closed his eyes and said weakly: "Motion sickness."
"Why are you motion sick?" Lu Yang asked, "Is the smell in the car too strong?"
"In my car?" Zhou Chuan opened the sunroof, "Is this better?"
"It's okay, the smell is a little bit strong, anyway, it's coming soon, it's okay." Pingqiu was so uncomfortable that he didn't want to open his eyes, and found that there was a hand on his back gently stroking, and it was a little itchy through the thin sweater. He opened his eyes and saw, Xu Xiuyuan stood next to him, and there was a strong smell of grapes when he spoke in a low voice.
He likes the taste of grapes, ignored Xu Xiuyuan asking him if he felt better, and turned his face to one side and asked, "Did you eat something that tasted like grapes?"
"The new store on the road is doing an event, and they gave me some ordinary colored sugar. Do you want some?" Xu Xiuyuan asked.
"No," Ping Qiu smiled and closed his eyes, "Eating candy will cause a toothache, I won't eat it."
"Pingqiu."
"Ah?" After turning to the co-pilot, Lu Yang poked half of his face and asked if he could persist, Ping Qiu smiled, "Next time I won't take Zhou Chuan's car, I'd rather walk there by myself."
Zhou Chuan protested: "I gave you a ride along the way, is it my fault now?"
Ping Qiu leaned against the car window and smiled straight. Lu Yang in front handed over a bottle of mineral water, and Xu Xiuyuan's palm was slowly stroking up and down behind him.He was so comfortable that he forgot that such a posture was a bit over the line, and he handed the mineral water to Xu Xiuyuan and asked him if he wanted it.Xu Xiuyuan was sitting very close to him at this moment, legs leaning against legs, shoulders touching shoulders.He didn't pick up the water, and Ping Qiu didn't want to drink it, so he stuffed the water bottle into his backpack and continued to lie down by the window.
The wind outside the window was so strong that the hair on his forehead was blown back.
Ping Qiu and Lu Yang often come to the hot pot restaurant here.Zhou Chuan put the three of them on the side of the road and drove away.Xu Xiuyuan went to throw the garbage, turned around and found that Lu Yang took the opportunity to hug Pingqiu's lower back.And Ping Qiu pushed him in panic, looking like he was blaming him for his hands and feet, seeing Xu Xiuyuan approaching, he deliberately stayed away from Lu Yang, and went around to the other side of Xu Xiuyuan.
Lu Yang is always a bit out of tune in what he says and does, and it can be regarded as fun in a relationship, but his habit of sticking close to Ping Qiu regardless of the situation makes Ping Qiu a little troubled, especially now that there is more Xu Xiuyuan, and Ping Qiu is doing his best. She wanted to show a little more stability in front of him, but she almost fell short because of Lu Yang's tricks.
After entering the store and taking a seat, Ping Qiu lightly kicked Lu Yang who was sitting close to him, and moved his chin a little to the opposite side, signaling him to sit there.
Lu Yang was not very happy: "Why didn't he sit?"
Xu Xiuyuan walked last and glanced at Pingqiu.Although he didn't express his opinion, he obviously wanted to sit aside with Ping Qiu.Even in the past, Pingqiu and Xu Ruiyang took Xu Xiuyuan out to buy books under the pretext of going on a date, Xu Xiuyuan used to sit on one side of Pingqiu, and Xu Ruiyang sat on the other side facing Pingqiu, but now Xu Ruiyang was replaced by Lu Yang, and Xu Xiuyuan was still side by side with Pingqiu sit.
"Sit over there." Ping Qiu emphasized, and lightly kicked Lu Yang's shoe side with his toe.
Lu Yang glanced at him: "All right."
Pingqiu took the middle seat and asked Xu Xiuyuan to come over: "You can order whatever you want, I will treat you today."
"I also can."
"It's okay without 'anything'," Pingqiu opened the menu, "Don't worry, I have enough money."
Lu Yang also chimed in: "Order, it's not enough for me."
Xu Xiuyuan looked up at him and smiled: "Then I order casually?"
Pingqiu didn't notice that he was talking to Lu Yang, while he was clearing away the sauce dishes, he was still nodding vigorously: "Order."
During the meal, the table was steaming hot, Pingqiu's appetite was mediocre, and he watched Lu Yang feast on the whole meal, and occasionally helped Xu Xiuyuan warm the dishes.With a spoon, he scooped up one side for Lu Yang and the other side for Xu Xiuyuan. He always thought that Xu Xiuyuan didn't eat much because he wasn't used to it, so he took the initiative to greet him and asked Xu Xiuyuan to pile up a small piece of food in his bowl. mountain bag.
"By the way, I heard from Pingqiu that your college entrance examination today is about eighteen or seventeen?" Lu Yang opened the conversation first.
"Eighteen." Xu Xiuyuan said.
"Oh, did your college entrance examination results come out? How did you do?" Lu Yang asked casually, unexpectedly getting kicked under the table, and Ping Qiu frowned as if he was not satisfied with his question.He couldn't figure it out, and asked silently with his mouth: What are you doing?
Ping Qiu was angry at him for being dull, and changed the subject: "Xiu Yuan, where did you go to play today?"
"I don't know, just walk around—I even went to No. [-] Middle School."
"No.[-] Middle School?" Ping Qiu was surprised, "Is it the high school campus opposite us? How did you get in? They should not let you go."
"I just stood outside for a while, and the guard saw me and let me in."
"Then he may see you as a student," Ping Qiu said with a smile, "I remember that the fourth middle school is not very big, but it is much smaller than our high school anyway, and it takes only a few minutes to finish. And at this time, the students are in class, and the end of the term is approaching." I passed the exam, didn't you get suspected when you went in?"
"There is a lake in their school. I sat there for a while, but I met a pair of students who were dating."
"Really?"
"But I didn't look carefully. It seems that they found me first. Maybe they thought I was a teacher. They checked the time on the phone and wanted to take a sneak shot, so they ran away."
Ping Qiu was amused, and choked by the heat of the spicy pot, turned around and coughed twice.His calf was touched suddenly, and he looked at Lu Yang.Lu Yang leaned on the table with his arms on both sides, and looked straight over.Pingqiu's face was reddened by heat, and the itch in his throat became more and more intense. He swallowed hard to try to suppress the itch, and at the same time stretched his hand under the table, knocking Lu Yang's foot that was rubbing against his leg on purpose. .
Lu Yang refused to let him go, he wanted to take revenge on Ping Qiu and Xu Xiuyuan for ignoring him and only caring about you coming and talking.He put his foot on Kai Pingqiu's knees, and deliberately touched his inner thigh, but he pretended to be serious: "Xiuyuan——you don't mind if I call you like Pingqiu? Didn't you Pingqiu very early?" Do you know each other? He said you are the younger brother of his junior high school classmate, so you must have known each other for more than ten years?"
"Isn't it elementary school?" Xu Xiuyuan asked Pingqiu, "My brother said that you are in the same class in the fourth grade of elementary school, all the way to the branch high school. Why is it junior high school?"
The lie was exposed, and Pingqiu stammered for a while: "Elementary school? I can't remember, maybe it is."
"You learned to ride a bicycle in the sixth grade, didn't you borrow my brother's bicycle? You just learned to ride me, but you fell and scratched my face. You don't remember, but I remember very clearly," Xu Xiuyuan said to Ping Qiu laughed, "I am the one who makes you fall."
"Is that your brother?" Lu Yang interjected.
"Dear."
"what is it call?"
"Xu Ruiyang, auspicious auspicious auspiciousness, sunny yang—not the ocean's yang."
Lu Yang paused with his chopsticks: "Xu Ruiyang? Why is this name so familiar, I feel like I've heard it somewhere——Pingqiu, have you told me about him?"
The hot soup is tumbling, so that Pingqiu's forehead is covered with a fine layer of sweat: "...I didn't say it, you remember it wrong."
But it did sound familiar, and Lu Yang couldn't understand it after thinking about it.It just so happened that there was a guest passing by at another table, a man in his 30s. When he spotted Lu Yang, he greeted him pleasantly.
They chatted, Xu Xiuyuan wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then whispered to Pingqiu: "I'm going to wash my hands."
Show him the way, and seeing that he just ran into the waiter halfway, Pingqiu looked away, and took two paper towels to wipe the seams of his fingers carefully.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Xu Xiuyuan's cell phone on the dining table turned on, and he regretted his curiosity, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of Xu Ruiyang for the second time today, and he would have killed Xu Ruiyang in front of him with such arrogance——Xu Xiuyuan's cell phone was set to mute , the incoming call page kept flickering, "Xu Ruiyang" stayed on the screen for a long time, hung up after missing a call, and made another call.
Ping Qiu stared blankly at the phone screen, watching it turn from bright to dark, and then turn on again.Xu Ruiyang asked on WeChat where Xu Xiuyuan was at the moment.He is still not used to typing long sentences, most of the messages are very short, and the screen is very dark, Ping Qiu can't read carefully, looking at the screen as if he was frozen, constantly jumping and flashing.When Xu Xiuyuan returned to his seat, he turned his face away, his throat was sore, as if he had swallowed the whole desert.
On the way home, Pingqiu was a little absent-minded.He walked among the three of them, and Lu Yang walked on the outermost side. From time to time, the arc of his hand would touch the back of Pingqiu's hand when he continued walking.He was distracted, with affection in his heart, walking on the dimly lit path, he found that Ping Qiu's face was even more handsome at this moment.He undoubtedly loves Pingqiu, Lu Yang has never denied this from the beginning to the end.
After sending it to the bottom of the residential building, Lu Yang asked Ping Qiu to talk to him on the pretext of asking Xu Xiuyuan to take the key and go upstairs first.Watching him go straight up, Lu Yang helped Fu Pingqiu by the shoulders, and took him to a position farther away from the street lights—he knew that Pingqiu would mind if a third person found out that they were behaving intimately—and then asked: "You What's the matter today, you can't concentrate on eating, and you are in a daze when you walk, do you have something on your mind?"
Once seen through, Pingqiu's chest was pounding.He looked at Lu Yang, and seemed to have something to say, but because he didn't know whether this was a good time, he swallowed the words: "Maybe I'm sleepy."
"Don't sleep before you go back, come here when your brother falls asleep," Lu Yang said to a hotel two streets away, "I'll wait for you there."
"...I won't go." Ping Qiu refused.
"Come on, okay? Don't make it too late, I'll take you back after you sleep. Do you have something to say to me, just when you were eating?" Seeing no one around, Lu Yang held Ping Qiu Put the back of your hand to your lips for a quick kiss, "You'll come over later, I'll listen to whatever you say."
Pingqiu couldn't make up his mind, and instinctively wanted to hide from Lu Yang, so he took his hand away, persuaded his boyfriend to leave with a few words, and ran upstairs without looking back.Halfway through the run, I received a WeChat message from Lu Yang, to the effect that he would be waiting.Ping Qiu slowed down his trotting pace, stood in the dark corridor for 2 minutes, then rubbed his chin, and continued to walk home.
The door of the house was open, the living room was lit, Xu Xiuyuan was sitting on the sofa, he raised his head when he heard the movement, but saw Pingqiu handing over the 200 yuan money on the shoe cabinet, and asked him what it was.
"You gave me 200 yuan." Xu Xiuyuan replied.
"You're useless—I don't mean anything else, don't get me wrong, I'm afraid you won't eat to save money," Pingqiu argued, "I think you came to find me because you trust me, I can't let you You can’t even eat enough here. It’s only 200 yuan, you treat it as my pocket money, the same as when you were a child, you don’t have to pay too much attention.”
"In the past, you gave me money because my brother gave it to me, and you followed suit," Xu Xiuyuan smiled, "What is this now?"
Pingqiu accepted it reluctantly: "...But don't you still think of me as your brother? Could it be that I can only give you pocket money if I have a good relationship with your brother?"
"No, you got it wrong," Xu Xiuyuan said, "I just think it's unreasonable to take your money without a name."
"Then take it as it is," Ping Qiu slowly put the money on the table, "it's my compensation for you."
As the night approached, Xu Xiuyuan washed up and went to bed first. Pingqiu was still working in front of the computer in the living room. The actual document was blank. He just found an excuse to avoid Xu Xiuyuan.
My heart was in turmoil, especially when I received the hotel room number from Lu Yang, Ping Qiu didn't want to go, but at the same time, I was greedy for Lu Yang's comfort - behind Lu Yang's back, I randomly remembered the memories about Xu Ruiyang, Ping Qiu felt ashamed. Thinking it was a kind of spiritual betrayal, he was eager to be comforted, hoped for affirmation, and even more eager for Lu Yang's brutal demands.Finally, under a sudden, hasty and urgent decision, he closed the door of the house, and before he had time to put on an extra coat, he ran towards Lu Yang's hotel with his cell phone and keys.
The reason was that there was no reply from Pingqiu for a long time, and Lu Yang thought that tonight's plan would come to naught.Unexpectedly, when he was half asleep, he heard the doorbell, and when the door opened, Ping Qiu almost flew in, with his hands wrapped around his waist, his face was icy cold.Hugged tightly, Lu Yang found that he was shivering from the cold.
"Come over if you're wearing that much?" As if he couldn't wait, Lu Yang kicked the door, and slowly shook his arms around Pingqiu, kissing his cheek and neck from time to time.
It wasn't until he tried to lift Pingqiu's face from his shoulder socket that Lu Yang realized that he was not in the right mood.But only halfway through the questioning, Ping Qiu suddenly cupped his face and kissed him, his teeth gritted his lips, as if he was in a hurry, and he started to unbutton Lu Yang's collar with both hands in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yang's intuition was wrong, and he dragged Pingqiu's waist with both hands to push him away, "Why did it suddenly happen, is there something uncomfortable?"
"No, no," Ping Qiu breathed heavily, "Kiss me, hurry up, kiss me—"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yang kissed her.Still trying to break Ping Qiu's bones, they hugged each other and fell into the bed, the quilt covered Ping Qiu's face, and his shoulders were also buried in it.The bed body kept shaking, and for a long time, Ping Qiu struggled to kneel up, groped on the bedside table for a while, then Lu Yang's hand came out from under the quilt, and pressed his palm against the back of his hand and pressed it hard on the table.Pingqiu's body seemed to be folded in half, one half was hung at the head of the bed, and the other half was hung at the end of the bed.
When the affection was strong, a sharp bell sounded suddenly in the room.Kneeling there, Ping Qiu saw the string of flickering phone numbers through layers of misty smoke.He suddenly put his legs together and clamped Lu Yang's head between his legs. Then, in a trance, they both fell off the edge of the bed in a connected posture, and dropped the yelling mobile phone from the corner of the bedside table.
Lu Yang was so annoyed by the noise, he wanted to snatch the phone and hang up, but Ping Qiu stepped on his shoulder.Seeing Pingqiu's pale face, he unconsciously lowered his tone: "What's wrong?"
Ping Qiu did not speak.The mobile phone on the ground was turned over, and there was only a missed call record on the screen, and a text message as short as two characters - it was still Xu Ruiyang's number, and it was still Xu Ruiyang's "Pingqiu". For so many years, his habit has always been No change.
Ping Qiu stood barefoot on the ground, raised his right leg to put on his trousers, while Lu Yang leaned against the head of the bed and smoked.He wasn't a heavy smoker, he only smoked one or two occasionally, because Pingqiu didn't like it, and later even "occasionally" was discounted.He still didn't know who signed the phone call, which actually changed Pingqiu's attitude.And no matter how he asked, Ping Qiu's response was only silence, which made Lu Yang's anger and jealousy burn all over the sky.
After putting on his clothes and pants, Ping Qiu adjusted his hair with his back facing Lu Yang, then took out his mobile phone and keys, said softly "I'm leaving", and was about to go to the door.
Lu Yang couldn't keep him, so he could only watch him walk out the door, with his arms folded defensively, walking slowly towards the end of the hotel corridor.
Perhaps it was due to a lack of oxygen, Pingqiu was dizzy when he walked out of the hotel, his whole body was so cold that he seemed to have been stripped naked.He walked a few steps and then stopped, looking ahead, it took him a long time to make a sound, and he said, "Why are you here?"
Xu Xiuyuan stood up straight from the side of the column he was leaning on, took two steps forward, and put the coat he held between his arms on his shoulders: "It's cooling down, here's a coat for you."
There was a noise in the kitchen, Ping Qiu got up in the morning and hadn't fully returned to his thoughts, when he got closer, he found that Xu Xiuyuan was leaning against the refrigerator to eat breakfast.He was reading a palm-sized author's notebook in one hand, and a half-eaten glutinous rice in the other hand. He turned his head and saw Pingqiu standing there. He closed the book and handed it over: "Sorry, I took you." books to read."
"It's okay, just watch it if you want, don't tell me specifically," Pingqiu glanced at the dining table, "Have you gone out to buy breakfast?"
"When I came back last night, I saw a breakfast stand outside."
"You bought breakfast, so what time did you get up?" Ping Qiu felt a little embarrassed, "I didn't even hear the sound, did I get up early? I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xu Xiuyuan didn't seem to care about his shame, but instead reminded him that time was tight.When Pingqiu heard about it, he hurried into the bathroom with his slippers on, washed and changed, and set off with his backpack within 10 minutes.Changing shoes at the door, Xu Xiuyuan handed him the packed breakfast, Ping Qiu thanked him, but saw that he also changed his shoes and prepared to go out, but asked him where he was going, Xu Xiuyuan said he didn't know, he would wait until he went out to see.
There are shared bicycles parked at the bottom of the building, Xu Xiuyuan rides quickly and steadily, and Pingqiu follows behind, sometimes reminding him to turn left or right at the next intersection.After passing the third traffic light, Xu Xiuyuan said that he was going to change direction, and Pingqiu watched him leave through the sidewalk first, and then went right to the institution.He parked the car downstairs and saw that there were seven or eight minutes left. He trotted to the convenience store to get a cup of sesame soy milk, and then walked back to clock in. The time was just right.
In most cases, during the weekdays, teachers will concentrate on making up lessons after two o'clock in the afternoon, and there will not be too many students in the morning, but sometimes a few students will come over for self-study.Leisurely in the morning, Ping Qiu sits at the front desk and eats breakfast. The glutinous rice siu mai has cooled down, and the soy milk is pressed, the taste is even more ordinary.While eating while using the computer, he choked and hiccupped twice.
After a while, I received a message from student Cheng Zinong, he wanted Pingqiu to take a mock exam from another region for him, saying that the questions were good, and the school teacher had taken the sample exams.Pingqiu has received the document and is waiting beside the printer.The mobile phone beeped twice, and Xu Xiuyuan and Lu Yang sent messages back and forth as if they had agreed, one reported that they were going to read in the library, and the other asked Pingqiu if he got up.
Pingqiu replied to Xu Xiuyuan first, thinking about it, and transferred 200 yuan to him.Xu Xiuyuan replied with a question mark, and he continued from below: Don't forget to eat lunch, you can also buy some books back.
Clicking on the chat box and sliding up and down, Pingqiu found that their chats before today were all cut up by horizontal bars marked with time. In most cases, Xu Xiuyuan sent monotonous holiday blessings before and after the festival, and Pingqiu's response was equally cold. Only under Xu Xiuyuan wishing him a happy birthday every year, he would politely add a hugging expression.Therefore, when Xu Xiuyuan, whom he had not seen for several years, suddenly appeared yesterday, although Ping Qiu was surprised, fortunately, he did not show too hurtful a sense of strangeness.
As for Xu Ruiyang's contact information, Ping Qiu deleted it completely after the two separated. Even the news of his marriage the year before last, Ping Qiu found out from Xu Xiuyuan's circle of friends that had not been updated all the year round.
After exiting the chat box, Lu Yang sent a few more messages because Ping Qiu didn't reply for a long time: I don't have classes after three o'clock today, so I'll pick you up for dinner tonight?
Pingqiu hesitated a bit, then remembered that Xu Xiuyuan would come over later, and asked if he could bring him along.Lu Yang readily agreed, and only asked Ping Qiu to wait at the door in the evening.
The weather was fine today and the sun was shining brightly. Xu Xiuyuan bought a black baseball cap when he was strolling around the mall and wore it as a shade.He blew the cold wind in the library for two hours, and then walked all the way back along the navigation. The shadows on the soles of his feet were long and short, and the mobile phone in his pocket was always jingling.
Obviously entrusted by his parents, Xu Ruiyang turned to put pressure on Xu Xiuyuan.It was true that their parents were divorcing, but the reason why Xu Xiuyuan ran away was far more than that. He even had a hand with Xu Ruiyang the night before he got on the train.
Both brothers were ruthless. Xu Xiuyuan rode Xu Ruiyang and punched him in the face hard. Night gasps for breath.Panting and panting, he laughed, his chest pumping like a strained bellows.The night wind blew his words into pieces, and Xu Xiuyuan slowly got up from the posture of kneeling on one knee, took a step, and grabbed his ankle again.He looked down at Xu Ruiyang's bruised and bloody face, and saw him looking back at him so jealously. Xu Xiuyuan's expression became a little distorted by the pleasure of revenge, even if Xu Ruiyang cursed him, "sooner or later, he will Regret" also made him unable to feel the fear at 01:30.In the end, it was Xu Xiuyuan who kicked him away, and Xu Ruiyang rolled half a circle, lying on his back laughing hoho.
After crossing the sidewalk, Xu Xiuyuan deleted Xu Ruiyang's chat box from the list again.
Cheng Zinong came here at two o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, Ping Qiu was helping a female classmate find the test papers. He was standing at the door of the office without saying a word, with his schoolbag on his back. .Seeing this, Pingqiu hurriedly handed him the whole pack of tissues, and closed the office door after seeing off the female classmate. Before he could turn around, someone rushed up from behind, with wet arms across his waist, and a posture that was getting tighter and tighter. , This caused Pingqiu to shrug his shoulders in fright, and break free in the next second.
He couldn't hide his astonishment, but when he saw Cheng Zinong's red eyes, he turned around when he asked the question: "...what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Zinong grabbed his arm and said in a low voice, "Teacher Qiu, help me."
"What are you helping me with? Did something happen to you?... You should be in school at this time, why did you come here suddenly? Is there any problem with the school?"
Cheng Zinong just stared at him, and Pingqiu couldn't help but touch his face, thinking that he had accidentally made an ugly face, subconsciously turned his face to the side, and automatically lowered his voice: "Do you want to give it to me?" Your mother calling?"
"No."
"But you are like this now—do you want to study by yourself here? Your class hasn't been scheduled yet, and the teacher is full today."
"I want to sleep here for a while."
"Is it here?"
Cheng Zinong said yes, Pingqiu had no choice but to lower the position of his swivel chair.Seeing that Cheng Zinong was drenched, he had no clothes in his office, but he had prepared a spring and autumn thin coat.He borrowed the clothes from him originally because he wanted him to wear his coat outside, but Cheng Zinong lifted up the short sleeves of his school uniform.
Ping Qiu quickly turned around and stood in front of the glass sliding door to cover him until Cheng Zi Nong said slowly.Looking again, his coat was zipped in half, leaving his neck and most of his chest exposed.Pingqiu felt a little funny, pointed to his neck and told him: "Pull it here."
Cheng Zinong didn't understand: "Pull what?"
Ping Qiu had no choice but to do it himself, pulling the zipper of his jacket all the way to his chin: "Aren't you cold just now?"
Cheng Zinong suddenly grabbed his arm, looked into his eyes and said, "Teacher, your back is wet too. I'm sorry, I just met you and made it."
No wonder the back felt a little chilly.Pingqiu twisted his shoulders uncomfortably, the wet part of the clothes sometimes stuck to the skin, and sometimes staggered.He said: "It's okay, I'll just wipe it off. Then you rest, I won't bother you."
"Will you call my mother?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Cheng Zinong asked anxiously.
"Don't you want to fight? Don't you want to tell me what happened today, even your mother?"
"I don't want to," Cheng Zinong shook his head, "If I want to tell you, I must tell you first."
Ping Qiu was embarrassed by his unconditional trust in him, and maybe he was a little worried that Cheng Zi Nong would say something inexplicable later, so he went out for an excuse, and when he came back, Cheng Zi Nong had already fallen asleep in the swivel chair.He moved lightly and put all the documents into the transparent bag.The posture of bending over made the half-wet clothes on the back stick to the flesh. Seeing that Cheng Zinong was indeed breathing steadily, Pingqiu pulled out two paper towels, and stood facing the sliding door with his back to Cheng Zinong, and put the paper towels into the clothes to wipe back.
The clothes were very damp, and it was always uncomfortable to stick to them. Pingqiu pulled the clothes very high, rubbed the paper towels up and down, tucked them into the clothes and pressed them to absorb the moisture.He was concentrating, watching to see if anyone was passing by the door.And Cheng Zinong was behind him, taking a panoramic view of Pingqiu's exposed waist and abdomen.
A few minutes before leaving get off work at five o'clock, Ping Qiu ordered Cheng Zinong's test papers at the front desk.While talking, Cheng Zinong bent down and got very close, Ping Qiu was a little uncomfortable, and kept calmly borrowing something to move to the side, when he saw Cheng Zinong suddenly stretched out his hand from the corner of his eye, he subconsciously avoided it, who knew Cheng Zinong I just want to use the fountain pen in the pen holder on the table to write the name on the test paper.
Cheng Zinong writes very carefully, and the characters are always small and narrow, and he likes to make the mark on the upper left side of the paper, Ping Qiu almost misses it many times.He stacked the completed test papers for Cheng Zinong, and gave him a green bookcase.Suddenly there was a shadow above his head, and when he looked up, Xu Xiuyuan was standing wearing a baseball cap, his face was slightly flushed from the sun.
Looking at the time, Pingqiu handed the test paper to Cheng Zinong: "The answers are all set for you later, it is very convenient for you to do it. That's it, if you still have questions, come to me again, is that okay?"
Cheng Zinong nodded: "Okay, thank you Teacher Qiu."
Ping Qiu smiled, and asked Xu Xiuyuan to wait here in a low voice, and he went to the big office to talk to the female teacher on duty before leaving.After a while, he came out with a backpack, Xu Xiuyuan handed him the paper bag in his hand, Ping Qiu asked what it was, and when he opened it, it turned out to be a white baseball cap.
He was surprised: "You went shopping and bought me a copy? Thank you."
As soon as the voice fell, a silver Audi stopped on the side of the road.The co-pilot lowered the window, and Lu Yang was beckoning.Ping Qiu walked away holding Xu Xiuyuan's forearm, Cheng Zinong was behind him calling the teacher goodbye, Ping Qiu turned around and shook his arm at him.When I got close to the car and looked at the driver's seat, it turned out that Zhou Chuan, Lu Yang's colleague and brother, was sitting.
Pingqiu greeted Zhou Chuan, and at the same time opened the door of the back seat, asking Xu Xiuyuan to sit in first.
Xu Xiuyuan didn't move, just looked at him.Then Pingqiu suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask Xu Xiuyuan's opinion in advance, so he scribbled to make amends: "We are going to eat hot pot at night, it is very close to home, and we will go home after eating. I was busy at work and forgot, I wanted to ask you —Then are you going?"
Lu Yang poked his head out from the co-pilot, and pulled Ping Qiu towards him to avoid the small electric motorcycle speeding behind him, and asked, "Can you go?"
"Are you going?" Ping Qiu asked.
"Go." Xu Xiuyuan glanced at Lu Yang's hand in Pingqiu's wrist, and agreed.
Zhou Chuan drives fast and steadily, and has always acted as a regular driver for their friends when they travel.Xu Xiuyuan sat on the other side of the back seat of the car, listening to the three of them talking about hot pot, work, and the outing that we went out together some time ago, none of which had anything to do with him.He also found Lu Yang's always looking here in the rearview mirror.
Lu Yang was not ashamed at being caught peeking, but after Xu Xiuyuan looked over, he naturally looked away and looked forward.
However, Pingqiu didn't feel so good.There are two kinds of car aromatherapy with strong smell in Zhou Chuan's car. After smelling them for a long time, he felt dizzy and nauseous. He was able to talk to the two people in front of him, but he just lay down by the car window to breathe the fresh air , The stomach is still rolling.
He lay by the window for a long time, Xu Xiuyuan saw his back twitch occasionally and his shoulders seemed to be trembling, so he moved his position to take a closer look.The wind blew the hair on the side of Pingqiu's face flying wildly, Xu Xiuyuan smoothed the hair around his ear: "Are you uncomfortable?"
Pingqiu frowned and nodded: "A little bit."
Lu Yang heard the movement in front and turned his head: "What's wrong?"
Waving his hand to indicate something trivial, Pingqiu turned his face sideways, put his left cheek on the back of his hand, half-closed his eyes and said weakly: "Motion sickness."
"Why are you motion sick?" Lu Yang asked, "Is the smell in the car too strong?"
"In my car?" Zhou Chuan opened the sunroof, "Is this better?"
"It's okay, the smell is a little bit strong, anyway, it's coming soon, it's okay." Pingqiu was so uncomfortable that he didn't want to open his eyes, and found that there was a hand on his back gently stroking, and it was a little itchy through the thin sweater. He opened his eyes and saw, Xu Xiuyuan stood next to him, and there was a strong smell of grapes when he spoke in a low voice.
He likes the taste of grapes, ignored Xu Xiuyuan asking him if he felt better, and turned his face to one side and asked, "Did you eat something that tasted like grapes?"
"The new store on the road is doing an event, and they gave me some ordinary colored sugar. Do you want some?" Xu Xiuyuan asked.
"No," Ping Qiu smiled and closed his eyes, "Eating candy will cause a toothache, I won't eat it."
"Pingqiu."
"Ah?" After turning to the co-pilot, Lu Yang poked half of his face and asked if he could persist, Ping Qiu smiled, "Next time I won't take Zhou Chuan's car, I'd rather walk there by myself."
Zhou Chuan protested: "I gave you a ride along the way, is it my fault now?"
Ping Qiu leaned against the car window and smiled straight. Lu Yang in front handed over a bottle of mineral water, and Xu Xiuyuan's palm was slowly stroking up and down behind him.He was so comfortable that he forgot that such a posture was a bit over the line, and he handed the mineral water to Xu Xiuyuan and asked him if he wanted it.Xu Xiuyuan was sitting very close to him at this moment, legs leaning against legs, shoulders touching shoulders.He didn't pick up the water, and Ping Qiu didn't want to drink it, so he stuffed the water bottle into his backpack and continued to lie down by the window.
The wind outside the window was so strong that the hair on his forehead was blown back.
Ping Qiu and Lu Yang often come to the hot pot restaurant here.Zhou Chuan put the three of them on the side of the road and drove away.Xu Xiuyuan went to throw the garbage, turned around and found that Lu Yang took the opportunity to hug Pingqiu's lower back.And Ping Qiu pushed him in panic, looking like he was blaming him for his hands and feet, seeing Xu Xiuyuan approaching, he deliberately stayed away from Lu Yang, and went around to the other side of Xu Xiuyuan.
Lu Yang is always a bit out of tune in what he says and does, and it can be regarded as fun in a relationship, but his habit of sticking close to Ping Qiu regardless of the situation makes Ping Qiu a little troubled, especially now that there is more Xu Xiuyuan, and Ping Qiu is doing his best. She wanted to show a little more stability in front of him, but she almost fell short because of Lu Yang's tricks.
After entering the store and taking a seat, Ping Qiu lightly kicked Lu Yang who was sitting close to him, and moved his chin a little to the opposite side, signaling him to sit there.
Lu Yang was not very happy: "Why didn't he sit?"
Xu Xiuyuan walked last and glanced at Pingqiu.Although he didn't express his opinion, he obviously wanted to sit aside with Ping Qiu.Even in the past, Pingqiu and Xu Ruiyang took Xu Xiuyuan out to buy books under the pretext of going on a date, Xu Xiuyuan used to sit on one side of Pingqiu, and Xu Ruiyang sat on the other side facing Pingqiu, but now Xu Ruiyang was replaced by Lu Yang, and Xu Xiuyuan was still side by side with Pingqiu sit.
"Sit over there." Ping Qiu emphasized, and lightly kicked Lu Yang's shoe side with his toe.
Lu Yang glanced at him: "All right."
Pingqiu took the middle seat and asked Xu Xiuyuan to come over: "You can order whatever you want, I will treat you today."
"I also can."
"It's okay without 'anything'," Pingqiu opened the menu, "Don't worry, I have enough money."
Lu Yang also chimed in: "Order, it's not enough for me."
Xu Xiuyuan looked up at him and smiled: "Then I order casually?"
Pingqiu didn't notice that he was talking to Lu Yang, while he was clearing away the sauce dishes, he was still nodding vigorously: "Order."
During the meal, the table was steaming hot, Pingqiu's appetite was mediocre, and he watched Lu Yang feast on the whole meal, and occasionally helped Xu Xiuyuan warm the dishes.With a spoon, he scooped up one side for Lu Yang and the other side for Xu Xiuyuan. He always thought that Xu Xiuyuan didn't eat much because he wasn't used to it, so he took the initiative to greet him and asked Xu Xiuyuan to pile up a small piece of food in his bowl. mountain bag.
"By the way, I heard from Pingqiu that your college entrance examination today is about eighteen or seventeen?" Lu Yang opened the conversation first.
"Eighteen." Xu Xiuyuan said.
"Oh, did your college entrance examination results come out? How did you do?" Lu Yang asked casually, unexpectedly getting kicked under the table, and Ping Qiu frowned as if he was not satisfied with his question.He couldn't figure it out, and asked silently with his mouth: What are you doing?
Ping Qiu was angry at him for being dull, and changed the subject: "Xiu Yuan, where did you go to play today?"
"I don't know, just walk around—I even went to No. [-] Middle School."
"No.[-] Middle School?" Ping Qiu was surprised, "Is it the high school campus opposite us? How did you get in? They should not let you go."
"I just stood outside for a while, and the guard saw me and let me in."
"Then he may see you as a student," Ping Qiu said with a smile, "I remember that the fourth middle school is not very big, but it is much smaller than our high school anyway, and it takes only a few minutes to finish. And at this time, the students are in class, and the end of the term is approaching." I passed the exam, didn't you get suspected when you went in?"
"There is a lake in their school. I sat there for a while, but I met a pair of students who were dating."
"Really?"
"But I didn't look carefully. It seems that they found me first. Maybe they thought I was a teacher. They checked the time on the phone and wanted to take a sneak shot, so they ran away."
Ping Qiu was amused, and choked by the heat of the spicy pot, turned around and coughed twice.His calf was touched suddenly, and he looked at Lu Yang.Lu Yang leaned on the table with his arms on both sides, and looked straight over.Pingqiu's face was reddened by heat, and the itch in his throat became more and more intense. He swallowed hard to try to suppress the itch, and at the same time stretched his hand under the table, knocking Lu Yang's foot that was rubbing against his leg on purpose. .
Lu Yang refused to let him go, he wanted to take revenge on Ping Qiu and Xu Xiuyuan for ignoring him and only caring about you coming and talking.He put his foot on Kai Pingqiu's knees, and deliberately touched his inner thigh, but he pretended to be serious: "Xiuyuan——you don't mind if I call you like Pingqiu? Didn't you Pingqiu very early?" Do you know each other? He said you are the younger brother of his junior high school classmate, so you must have known each other for more than ten years?"
"Isn't it elementary school?" Xu Xiuyuan asked Pingqiu, "My brother said that you are in the same class in the fourth grade of elementary school, all the way to the branch high school. Why is it junior high school?"
The lie was exposed, and Pingqiu stammered for a while: "Elementary school? I can't remember, maybe it is."
"You learned to ride a bicycle in the sixth grade, didn't you borrow my brother's bicycle? You just learned to ride me, but you fell and scratched my face. You don't remember, but I remember very clearly," Xu Xiuyuan said to Ping Qiu laughed, "I am the one who makes you fall."
"Is that your brother?" Lu Yang interjected.
"Dear."
"what is it call?"
"Xu Ruiyang, auspicious auspicious auspiciousness, sunny yang—not the ocean's yang."
Lu Yang paused with his chopsticks: "Xu Ruiyang? Why is this name so familiar, I feel like I've heard it somewhere——Pingqiu, have you told me about him?"
The hot soup is tumbling, so that Pingqiu's forehead is covered with a fine layer of sweat: "...I didn't say it, you remember it wrong."
But it did sound familiar, and Lu Yang couldn't understand it after thinking about it.It just so happened that there was a guest passing by at another table, a man in his 30s. When he spotted Lu Yang, he greeted him pleasantly.
They chatted, Xu Xiuyuan wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then whispered to Pingqiu: "I'm going to wash my hands."
Show him the way, and seeing that he just ran into the waiter halfway, Pingqiu looked away, and took two paper towels to wipe the seams of his fingers carefully.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Xu Xiuyuan's cell phone on the dining table turned on, and he regretted his curiosity, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of Xu Ruiyang for the second time today, and he would have killed Xu Ruiyang in front of him with such arrogance——Xu Xiuyuan's cell phone was set to mute , the incoming call page kept flickering, "Xu Ruiyang" stayed on the screen for a long time, hung up after missing a call, and made another call.
Ping Qiu stared blankly at the phone screen, watching it turn from bright to dark, and then turn on again.Xu Ruiyang asked on WeChat where Xu Xiuyuan was at the moment.He is still not used to typing long sentences, most of the messages are very short, and the screen is very dark, Ping Qiu can't read carefully, looking at the screen as if he was frozen, constantly jumping and flashing.When Xu Xiuyuan returned to his seat, he turned his face away, his throat was sore, as if he had swallowed the whole desert.
On the way home, Pingqiu was a little absent-minded.He walked among the three of them, and Lu Yang walked on the outermost side. From time to time, the arc of his hand would touch the back of Pingqiu's hand when he continued walking.He was distracted, with affection in his heart, walking on the dimly lit path, he found that Ping Qiu's face was even more handsome at this moment.He undoubtedly loves Pingqiu, Lu Yang has never denied this from the beginning to the end.
After sending it to the bottom of the residential building, Lu Yang asked Ping Qiu to talk to him on the pretext of asking Xu Xiuyuan to take the key and go upstairs first.Watching him go straight up, Lu Yang helped Fu Pingqiu by the shoulders, and took him to a position farther away from the street lights—he knew that Pingqiu would mind if a third person found out that they were behaving intimately—and then asked: "You What's the matter today, you can't concentrate on eating, and you are in a daze when you walk, do you have something on your mind?"
Once seen through, Pingqiu's chest was pounding.He looked at Lu Yang, and seemed to have something to say, but because he didn't know whether this was a good time, he swallowed the words: "Maybe I'm sleepy."
"Don't sleep before you go back, come here when your brother falls asleep," Lu Yang said to a hotel two streets away, "I'll wait for you there."
"...I won't go." Ping Qiu refused.
"Come on, okay? Don't make it too late, I'll take you back after you sleep. Do you have something to say to me, just when you were eating?" Seeing no one around, Lu Yang held Ping Qiu Put the back of your hand to your lips for a quick kiss, "You'll come over later, I'll listen to whatever you say."
Pingqiu couldn't make up his mind, and instinctively wanted to hide from Lu Yang, so he took his hand away, persuaded his boyfriend to leave with a few words, and ran upstairs without looking back.Halfway through the run, I received a WeChat message from Lu Yang, to the effect that he would be waiting.Ping Qiu slowed down his trotting pace, stood in the dark corridor for 2 minutes, then rubbed his chin, and continued to walk home.
The door of the house was open, the living room was lit, Xu Xiuyuan was sitting on the sofa, he raised his head when he heard the movement, but saw Pingqiu handing over the 200 yuan money on the shoe cabinet, and asked him what it was.
"You gave me 200 yuan." Xu Xiuyuan replied.
"You're useless—I don't mean anything else, don't get me wrong, I'm afraid you won't eat to save money," Pingqiu argued, "I think you came to find me because you trust me, I can't let you You can’t even eat enough here. It’s only 200 yuan, you treat it as my pocket money, the same as when you were a child, you don’t have to pay too much attention.”
"In the past, you gave me money because my brother gave it to me, and you followed suit," Xu Xiuyuan smiled, "What is this now?"
Pingqiu accepted it reluctantly: "...But don't you still think of me as your brother? Could it be that I can only give you pocket money if I have a good relationship with your brother?"
"No, you got it wrong," Xu Xiuyuan said, "I just think it's unreasonable to take your money without a name."
"Then take it as it is," Ping Qiu slowly put the money on the table, "it's my compensation for you."
As the night approached, Xu Xiuyuan washed up and went to bed first. Pingqiu was still working in front of the computer in the living room. The actual document was blank. He just found an excuse to avoid Xu Xiuyuan.
My heart was in turmoil, especially when I received the hotel room number from Lu Yang, Ping Qiu didn't want to go, but at the same time, I was greedy for Lu Yang's comfort - behind Lu Yang's back, I randomly remembered the memories about Xu Ruiyang, Ping Qiu felt ashamed. Thinking it was a kind of spiritual betrayal, he was eager to be comforted, hoped for affirmation, and even more eager for Lu Yang's brutal demands.Finally, under a sudden, hasty and urgent decision, he closed the door of the house, and before he had time to put on an extra coat, he ran towards Lu Yang's hotel with his cell phone and keys.
The reason was that there was no reply from Pingqiu for a long time, and Lu Yang thought that tonight's plan would come to naught.Unexpectedly, when he was half asleep, he heard the doorbell, and when the door opened, Ping Qiu almost flew in, with his hands wrapped around his waist, his face was icy cold.Hugged tightly, Lu Yang found that he was shivering from the cold.
"Come over if you're wearing that much?" As if he couldn't wait, Lu Yang kicked the door, and slowly shook his arms around Pingqiu, kissing his cheek and neck from time to time.
It wasn't until he tried to lift Pingqiu's face from his shoulder socket that Lu Yang realized that he was not in the right mood.But only halfway through the questioning, Ping Qiu suddenly cupped his face and kissed him, his teeth gritted his lips, as if he was in a hurry, and he started to unbutton Lu Yang's collar with both hands in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yang's intuition was wrong, and he dragged Pingqiu's waist with both hands to push him away, "Why did it suddenly happen, is there something uncomfortable?"
"No, no," Ping Qiu breathed heavily, "Kiss me, hurry up, kiss me—"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yang kissed her.Still trying to break Ping Qiu's bones, they hugged each other and fell into the bed, the quilt covered Ping Qiu's face, and his shoulders were also buried in it.The bed body kept shaking, and for a long time, Ping Qiu struggled to kneel up, groped on the bedside table for a while, then Lu Yang's hand came out from under the quilt, and pressed his palm against the back of his hand and pressed it hard on the table.Pingqiu's body seemed to be folded in half, one half was hung at the head of the bed, and the other half was hung at the end of the bed.
When the affection was strong, a sharp bell sounded suddenly in the room.Kneeling there, Ping Qiu saw the string of flickering phone numbers through layers of misty smoke.He suddenly put his legs together and clamped Lu Yang's head between his legs. Then, in a trance, they both fell off the edge of the bed in a connected posture, and dropped the yelling mobile phone from the corner of the bedside table.
Lu Yang was so annoyed by the noise, he wanted to snatch the phone and hang up, but Ping Qiu stepped on his shoulder.Seeing Pingqiu's pale face, he unconsciously lowered his tone: "What's wrong?"
Ping Qiu did not speak.The mobile phone on the ground was turned over, and there was only a missed call record on the screen, and a text message as short as two characters - it was still Xu Ruiyang's number, and it was still Xu Ruiyang's "Pingqiu". For so many years, his habit has always been No change.
Ping Qiu stood barefoot on the ground, raised his right leg to put on his trousers, while Lu Yang leaned against the head of the bed and smoked.He wasn't a heavy smoker, he only smoked one or two occasionally, because Pingqiu didn't like it, and later even "occasionally" was discounted.He still didn't know who signed the phone call, which actually changed Pingqiu's attitude.And no matter how he asked, Ping Qiu's response was only silence, which made Lu Yang's anger and jealousy burn all over the sky.
After putting on his clothes and pants, Ping Qiu adjusted his hair with his back facing Lu Yang, then took out his mobile phone and keys, said softly "I'm leaving", and was about to go to the door.
Lu Yang couldn't keep him, so he could only watch him walk out the door, with his arms folded defensively, walking slowly towards the end of the hotel corridor.
Perhaps it was due to a lack of oxygen, Pingqiu was dizzy when he walked out of the hotel, his whole body was so cold that he seemed to have been stripped naked.He walked a few steps and then stopped, looking ahead, it took him a long time to make a sound, and he said, "Why are you here?"
Xu Xiuyuan stood up straight from the side of the column he was leaning on, took two steps forward, and put the coat he held between his arms on his shoulders: "It's cooling down, here's a coat for you."
