God said I would meet you

"I said I'm not sick, and I don't need to change anything!"

In a community in a bustling section of Shanghai, Lin Jinyu couldn't bear to repeat for the thousandth time: "How many times do I have to tell you before you believe me!"

"Xiaoyu, don't..." Uncle Zhao said in a deep voice, "Your father didn't say you were sick, he just hoped that you could get out of the previous relationship and change a girlfriend, it's normal."

"What kind of feelings do I have?" Lin Jinyu said loudly, "I said I have no feelings! Why doesn't he believe it!"

"Calm down," Uncle Zhao said, "Your father is doing it for your own good."

For your own good, for your own good, everyone said that, but Lin Jinyu couldn't understand them, just like they couldn't understand Lin Jinyu.

"In a few days, a psychologist from Beijing will come to Shanghai for consultation. From [-]:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., there are only [-] people in line. Your father has already registered for you. I will take you there when the time comes."

Ever since Lin Jinyu could remember, Uncle Zhao has driven his grandfather. Over the years, he watched Lin Jinyu study and grow up, just like half of their family. Lin Jinyu's mental state is not very good recently, she needs to see a doctor.

"I said I don't need to see a doctor!"

Uncle Zhao scratched his frost-covered temples, feeling a little embarrassed, but he obviously didn't intend to change his mind... He might think that Lin Jinyu was under too much psychological pressure and fell into psychological anxiety, or worse, bipolar disorder tendency.

His parents didn't use violence against him, but in many cases, parents don't need to use violence to force their children to do something. The long-accumulated coercion of parents will become a kind of invisible and powerful inertia. Lin Jinyu is already here He has been living under this habit for a month. He is busy running between different hospitals or different doctors in the same hospital every day. He doesn't know how to end this kind of life... He can't really fight his parents.

Lin Jinyu has seen at least six different doctors in a month, and the answers from each doctor are similar, some express confusion, some say that in some places abroad, it is possible to get married, and there is no need to go to the hospital, and some give parents express human sympathy.

But no matter what, the doctors in these regular hospitals all said in unison: the hospital does not treat this.

This may be the only good news in his depressive life. Now it is not more than ten years ago. With the third edition of "Chinese Mental Disorder Classification and Diagnostic Criteria" in 2001, the concept of "homosexuality" was removed from the category of mental illness. The “Homosexuality Institute” was delisted, and the psychiatric and psychological departments of various hospitals no longer provide treatment for homosexuals. It is rare to see such institutions blatantly appearing in the market—some of them have gone underground and are still operating in the gray area.

Although Lin Jinyu's father never admitted that he was gay, fortunately, he never thought of giving up the regular hospital and turned to those so-called civil science "rehabilitation" institutions for help.

"Oh," Uncle Zhao looked at him and his father, sighed, and said, "Understand your father, he is very busy at work, and he has accumulated a lot of things a while ago, and he still has to worry about you." , hardly any sleep every day."

Lin Jinyu didn't understand, it was obviously not easy for everyone, why did they have to make things difficult for each other, this kind of care and devotion, he was very tired, his father was also tired, everyone was very tired.

But probably it's useless to argue any more. Uncle Zhao is also a father, and most of the time he prefers to look at the father-son relationship from Lin Huainan's perspective. Lin Jinyu said, "Can I go out for a walk?"

"Where are you going?" Uncle Zhao said, "Your father said, rest at home and read a book if you have nothing to do."

"I've been in the hospital for a full month except at home!" Lin Jinyu was extremely angry: "Reading? What's the use of reading when you can't go to school?"

"Don't get excited." Actually, Lin Huainan never said that he was not allowed to go out. Uncle Zhao thought for a moment, and said, "Where Xiaoyu wants to go, I'll take you there."

Lin Jinyu knew that he was a soldier, so he did what he said, and said, "Go shopping and drink milk tea, okay? Is it against the law?"

"No offense," said Uncle Zhao, "I'll drive you and stay with you."

As the domestic economic center, the commercial street in the central area of ​​Shanghai is very bustling. People come and go in a certain passerby in Nanjing. A new milk tea shop opened on the street corner in January this year.

Lin Jinyu stared at the passing scenes outside the window, and said, "Stop here."

Uncle Zhao parked the car, got out of the car with him, and walked inside: "Xiao Yu," he said, "Why are you here, you just tell me if you want to buy something."

"I'll take a breath and drink milk tea," Lin Jinyu turned around and said, "You want a cup too?"

Uncle Zhao waved his hand: "Middle-aged man, high blood sugar."

Lin Jinyu has loved eating and drinking since he was a child. He also goes to milk tea shops that boys seldom go to. It is normal for him to buy milk tea. Uncle Zhao didn't think there was anything wrong.

Lin Jinyu crossed the road and turned into the milk tea shop diagonally opposite the optical shop.

The store is not big, but the decoration is very good. There are a few tables of young people sitting on the side of the glass window. Uncle Zhao is a few steps behind, watching him enter the door, and he is behind the queue. It seems that the place inside is small and there are many people. , anyway, the glass is transparent, and the situation inside can be seen at a glance, so he didn't go in, just stood at the door and lit a cigarette, and came out by himself after he finished shopping.

Lin Jinyu pushed the door open, glanced back, and was relieved to see that Uncle Zhao didn't follow as he thought.

The staff was quick to order, and ordered one by one. When it was Lin Jinyu's turn, he ordered a glass indiscriminately, but he was not in a hurry to take the order and leave. Seeing that there were customers behind him, the girl who ordered looked at him and said suspiciously: "You Ok, is there anything else you need?"

Under the cover of the crowd, Lin Jinyu glanced back, saw Uncle Zhao through the transparent glass door, thought he was just ordering normally, and didn't pay much attention to this side, and said, "Hello, may I ask... where is your boss?" ?"

This store just changed its boss in January this year, and the boss took advantage of the winter vacation to watch the team decorate the store...by the way, he also took the time to attend the reunion of high school classmates.

Thanks to that gathering, the old classmates from the previous class of the attached high school greeted each other, and reported to each other what they had been like since they left the attached high school and went to university. Lin Jinyu had many friends in the class, except for Shen Lanxi, Qiao Qiang, and Huang Jiayao Those who were not there, he also learned that his roommate, the guy nicknamed Marley, rented a shop here to open a milk tea shop.

His major is in this direction. Every day in class, the teacher will analyze various franchise traps for them. In addition, the school itself has a subsidy to encourage entrepreneurship. With business skills, I applied for a sum of school funds, plus the money I saved, a scholarship, and a sum of money from my parents at home, and I asked my old classmates to make up for it, and put together a sum of money to set up a facade here. .

Lin Jinyu was one of those old classmates who lent him money.

The clerk was stunned for a moment. It was probably the first time he met a customer who had to meet the boss to buy milk tea... But in the service industry, the first rule of training for order girls is not to conflict with customers. Wait," I informed the clerk next to me a few times, and he really ran inside to call him the boss.

Lin Jinyu actually didn't know what to do. Unless the owner of a milk tea shop works part-time as an ingredient, he usually doesn't need to look at it himself. He also doesn't know whether Marley is there. Fortunately, it may be the beginning of his career, and he won't worry about it. Shopkeeper, it's actually in the store right now.

Marley came out in a daze, and the first time he saw him, he was happy. When he was in school, he shared a dormitory with Lin Jinyu, and they had a good relationship. In addition, after borrowing money, Lin Jinyu gave it to him without saying a word, even though it was thousands of dollars. Not too much, but he still remembered this love.

In fact, Lin Jinyu was purely ignorant of the money, anyway, he was not short of it, and his old classmate needed it urgently, and he happened to have it, so he passed it on to others.

"Whale?" Marley said, "Why are you here? School hasn't started yet?"

It's late September, there is no natural or man-made disaster, how could the school still not open, Lin Jinyu turned his back to the door, smiled at him, greeted him briefly, and said: "It's open, I'm... a little It's difficult, I don't know if it's convenient for you..."

"It's convenient, I'm just here to watch, and it's actually fine," Marley said, "Why don't I treat you to dinner later, and talk while you eat."

"No, no, no," Lin Jinyu didn't have much time, he said, "Just say it here," he motioned Marley to follow him to an inconspicuous corner of the counter: "Well... I'm actually mainly... wanting to borrow money this time." Some money."

This may be the first time he has seriously asked others to borrow money. Lin Jinyu is not very experienced: "Then what, is it convenient for you?"

"It's convenient," Lin Jinyu was straightforward when he borrowed money from him, so Marley didn't resent him suddenly coming to him to borrow money: "Look at what you said, I still owe you a few thousand, I have something to say. "

Sometimes people around you who you know inadvertently can give you unexpected help at an unexpected moment.Lin Jinyu really had enough of this kind of life. He suddenly fully understood why Wang Xiu ran out even with only a few hundred dollars in his pocket. He said, "I... have something urgent, and I want to borrow some money from you."

"What's the rush?" Marley said, "Are you afraid that I won't pay it back? No, I promised to pay it back in one year, so I'm sure I'll pay it off."

"No." Lin Jinyu has been here for a long time, he turned his body slightly, and from the corner of his eye, he saw that Uncle Zhao had finished smoking a cigarette, and he was already poking his head towards this side with some doubts: "I'm really... in a hurry. "

Marley noticed his eyes. At this time, some inexplicable tacit understanding existed between the men. He inadvertently followed Lin Jinyu's gaze, and suddenly lowered his voice like a mafia leader: " Something inconvenient to say?"

Lin Jinyu looked back at him, and saw Marley's face showing awe-inspiring brotherhood like the Brotherhood of Heaven and Earth...

"Uh," Lin Jinyu said, "almost."

It’s almost the same, family ugliness should not be publicized, whether it’s orientation or the mess in the family can’t be explained clearly in a few words, Marley asked: “How much do you want to borrow?”

Lin Jinyu herself didn't know how much she wanted to borrow, three thousand five thousand?Thirty-five thousand?He didn't know when his parents would change their minds, and when he would be able to go home again.

"I don't know," he said. "It doesn't count."

Those who borrow money don’t know how to count. This is really...Anyone who is borrowed should be speechless at this time, but Marley didn’t. You need to run away when you have something to do, and then you need to borrow money to have an abortion when your girlfriend is pregnant... It's a mess.

He pondered for a moment to Lin Jinyu, and said: "Forget it, how about it, I will pay back the money you lent me. It was your money in the first place, so you don't have to pay it back, and the two are settled."

Uncle Zhao was still staring at him, Lin Jinyu asked him a few words about whether the account in the store could bear it, Marley said it didn't matter, and then directly transferred him [-] yuan in front of his face.

Lin Jinyu said, "I didn't lend you so much."

"If you have too much money, it's half a loan and half a gift." Marley waved his hand: "If you have money, you can pay it back, and if you can't, forget it."

They came from the same class, and the small group in the attached middle school worked hard and was full of cohesion. They used to get together to cheer for a basketball game, but now even if they go their separate ways, everyone is still a classmate.

Lin Jinyu said, "Thank you."

Thanks to the ever-developing payment technology, in the past, Marley would have to count out 1 yuan from under the counter in front of him. Nine texts and big money are so eye-catching.

Outside the store, through the glass window pasted with decorative paper, Uncle Zhao could only see Lin Jinyu say something to a clerk who came out from the back after queuing up, and then the other party took out his mobile phone, and the two scanned the code... Knowing the rapid development of technology today, one can't see that the clerk sweeping Lin Jinyu is inappropriate.

Marley pushed the packaged milk tea to him and said, "Please drink it, I wish you good luck, old classmate."

Lin Jinyu turned her back to the direction of the street, secretly thinking about the plan in her heart.
