between heartstrings

The temperature in the palms of the palms conveyed and felt warm. After passing the alley, the two let go of their hands tacitly. They looked at each other and smiled in the crowd, and walked towards the warm and noisy ancient long street.

Wearing gorgeous suits and exquisite accessories, in the eyes of others, they are out of place in this simple street. Many strange eyes cast their eyes on them. Wei Sizhe folded his arms and said, "It's a mistake, we are dressed too ostentatiously." Now, if you visit such a place, you should go home and change your clothes first."

"I don't think so." Chu Jiahe approached Wei Sizhe, giving way to a bicycle behind him. The street was narrow, and they walked together crowded together, "I'm experiencing your past, so I should dress more solemnly."

These words made Wei Sizhe's chest tighten, and he couldn't control his behavior for a moment.Embracing Chu Jiahe's shoulders, pressing his palms on his shoulders, Wei Sizhe rubbed Chu Jiahe's coat with his thumb, feeling happy.

"Did you see that stationery store?" Wei Sizhe pointed to the brick building on the right, "It's been here for more than ten years, I remember that fifty cents could buy an eraser or two pencils back then .”

"Or a plastic ruler." Chu Jiahe added.

"Yes." Wei Sizhe smiled, and then sighed, "You can't buy anything with fifty cents now."

The shopkeeper shouted one after another, Chu Jiahe spread his hands towards Wei Sizhe, and jokingly said: "Mr. Wei's fifty cents can 'buy' a lot of things here."

Surrounded by pedestrians, Wei Sizhe pinched Chu Jiahe's fingertips restrainedly, and asked with a smile, "What are the details?"

Chu Jiahe replied: "Whatever I have, as long as you open your mouth, you can take whatever you like."

After saying this, Chu Jiahe suddenly had a slight illusion, and it seemed that it was not because of his own carelessness——Wei Sizhe looked at him with a different look, revealing that it was no longer gentle and calm, but changed from the usual calm, hiding Overwhelmingly affectionate, filled with anticipation and excitement, it seems purposeful.

A piece of cheerful and playful music slid into his ears, Chu Jiahe looked away, turned his head to look for the source of the sound, it was a lottery shop.Wei Sizhe followed his line of sight, and was reminded of the familiar shop front.

"It used to be that there were three stores side by side, selling lottery tickets, big lottery/tots, and scratch tickets." Wei Sizhe said, "Many students in our grade have a little extra pocket money, and they have thought about those stores."

Chu Jiahe asked curiously: "Are there really any students who will buy it?"

Wei Sizhe curled his lips and said, "With so much pressure in high school, there will always be people daydreaming about getting rich overnight."

Chu Jiahe rolled his eyes: "Mr. Wei too?"

"To be honest." Wei Sizhe raised his eyebrows, "I did imagine at the time that if I could have a lot of money, I would first change my parents to a better house, and then study abroad without any burden. When you return from your studies, start a company and be your own boss."

"Mr. He just told me about some of your affairs." Chu Jiahe asked, "Haven't all of your expectations come true?"

"It can't be said to be realized." Wei Sizhe said calmly, "The matter of starting a company can only be regarded as an attempt. Facts have proved that this road is not suitable for me."

The company founded by four people, why did Wei Sizhe, He Yuan, and Qi Qian choose different paths in the end?What puzzled Chu Jiahe the most was, where did Shen Youqing go?

Wei Sizhe's expression was indifferent, and there was no omission in his words. Chu Jiahe couldn't find an entry point to ask, so he didn't investigate further.Returning to the previous topic, Chu Jiahe asked, "Have you ever been to those stores?"

Wei Sizhe touched his ear and confessed honestly: "I only bought one scratch-off."

Chu Jiahe sensed something from his tone: "Could it be... that one wins the lottery?"

Wei Sizhen pursed his lips and said, "So the matter of me buying scratch-offs has become a gossip in my family. My dad used to say that when I was one year old, I drew lots twice, and all the things I got were money-related objects. It’s the first time I encountered Fucai, and I was so lucky that I started to focus on reading books on finance in the first semester of high school.”

With a faint smile on his face, Chu Jiahe looked at Wei Sizhe and blinked: "Don't tell me that the reason you study finance is because of 'lots' and 'scratch games', it's too superstitious Alright."

After a pause, Wei Sizhe said in a relaxed tone: "It sounds like such a reason is really not serious, but I don't deny it, sometimes I'm really superstitious."

In Chu Jiahe's eyes, the word "superstition" has nothing to do with Wei Sizhe.He believes that people like Wei Sizhe should make any decision after careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons before reaching conclusions and actions, and will not become too hasty due to superstition.

Especially when it comes to choosing a major, a major event that almost sets the direction of life, even if Wei Sizhe did have "superstition" in his choice, he should not easily express his inner thoughts. It is extremely inconsistent to give outsiders the impression of being "mature and stable".

Turning his mind to this point, Chu Jiahe suddenly understood the purpose of Wei Sizhe's actions all day today.The noise disperses behind, step out of the narrow alley, the wind blows from the right, Wei Sizhe goes around to the right of Chu Jiahe, the two turn to the side road under the ring road bridge, the bustling scene of the metropolis is spread out in front of them.

Chu Jiahe asked, "How much did you win?"

"500 yuan, which is fifty cents for a thousand sheets." Wei Sizhe said, "All the stationery in this life has been covered by this scratch-off. rich'."

His voice was deep, his expression was calm and self-sustaining, his body was steady, but he spoke innocent and lovely words. Chu Jiahe looked at Wei Sizhe's side face, and the street lights suddenly turned on, and the warm yellow color sprinkled on his shoulders. For a moment he was moved.

"If I'm not mistaken, everything I heard and saw today is what you wanted me to hear and see."

"I guess, you want me to know the real you." Chu Jiahe said softly, "Or, you intend to show me your truest side."

Wei Sizhe turned his face away, his brows and eyes soft: "You're so smart."

The eyes met/joined, Chu Jiahe stood in front of Wei Sizhe, and the two stopped.There were speeding vehicles on the wide road, Chu Jiahe asked: "Mr. Wei, can you tell me what your intention is?"

At the corner of the street, under an old street lamp that is not very bright, two true hearts collide quietly in the most ordinary years.Wei Sizhe put his hand on Chu Jiahe's shoulder, looked into his eyes, and said gently: "In the parking lot of the nursing home, we both said something to make the other party 'think clearly', but we didn't mean the same thing."

"In your world, there seems to be a gap between us. Although you are calm when facing my state every time, I can feel that my objective conditions are more or less stressful to you. "

The worries deep in his heart were completely dissected by Wei Sizhe, and Chu Jiahe frowned slightly, revealing a little uneasiness.If the two parties in a relationship are not evenly matched, once one party loses his mind, the illusion of balance will collapse sooner or later.

"Money, fame, job, title, these should not become the criteria for dividing people into grades, nor should they affect the way we look at people and things."

"Whether a person is excellent, his own quality and self-cultivation, can only be determined by getting along with each other."

"Chu Jiahe, I am an extremely ordinary person." Wei Sizhe said, "I am in the same world as you, as long as you are willing to reach out, you can touch me."

Pointing to Chu Jiahe's heart with his index finger, Wei Sizhe said softly: "What I want is that your heart can be like what you have shown, that you can truly feel that what I desire to bring you is the most stable life. "

"I hope you can look at me the way you look at yourself." Wei Sizhe said as he moved his finger up, and then bent and stroked the tip of Chu Jiahe's nose, "At the same time, I also hope that from now on, the relationship between you and me always equal."
