Qianli Jiangling

After a round of ball was played, Jiang Li told the cashier to turn off the lights and pay the bill.

Because the rule is that the loser pays the fee, Jiang Li took the initiative to run to the cashier, ready to give the money.

But the cashier said: "It took 9 minutes to call, 44 yuan. If you get a 22% discount, it will be [-] yuan. It has been deducted from the stored value card."

Jiang Li was very curious and asked, "I don't have a stored-value card?"

The cashier replied: "Sheng Qianling charged 1000 yuan and said that you both use this to pay the bill."

Jiang Li was a little surprised. He turned around and saw Sheng Qianling walking towards the club cabinet with his cue in his hand, and followed him with strides.

On the wall near the cashier, there are a group of club cabinets for members, which are divided into upper and lower rows. Each club cabinet is equipped with a hanger, and members can hang the clubs on it to let the clubs Keep it suspended and vertical so as not to affect the playing feeling.

Sheng Qianling was stuffing his cue into the dark green boom holder, Jiang Li walked over to him and asked, "Brother Ling, have you applied for a stored value card?"

Sheng Qianling nodded, without stopping the movement of his hands, and said, "Yes, in the last competition, the runner-up got a bonus of 1000 yuan, so let's use it here for the pole."

Hearing this, Jiang Li felt a little weird.It was obviously a very good thing, but he was inexplicably reluctant, and seemed to have a feeling of being given alms, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He said, "Then you use it yourself, and I will pay for it myself."

Sheng Qianling had already hung up his clubs, closed the cabinet door with a "snap", turned his head to look at Jiang Li, and said calmly, "I won't stay here for long, and there are few bad clubs, so I can't use them all up."

Jiang Li didn't feel happy, but felt even more disappointed because of Sheng Qianling's words "I won't be here for long".It seems that I haven't been together for long, and I feel the gloomy mood when we parted in advance.

He couldn't help asking: "How long is it? Why are you here?"

Sheng Qianling was rarely in a bad mood, and there were almost undetectable thorns in his words: "These are not issues you should worry about."

Jiang Li is like a balloon that is gradually being blown up, and his temper is surging: "Then what should I care about? I only care about whether I am up or not? I only care about whether I can learn how to learn pole skills? Sheng Qianling, as a friend, I care about You can't do it for a while?"

Since becoming a teacher, Jiang Li rarely called Sheng Qianling by his name directly.

He has always been called "Brother Ling", but occasionally when he is acting like a baby, he will call him "Master".

Shouting these three words so completely, it sounds like a different flavor.Kind of close, yet distant.It seemed that there was an invisible river running between the two of them, which only increased the distance.

After a while, Sheng Qianling finally replied: "Jiang Li, I don't want to talk about this right now."

He didn't want to say anything that hadn't been decided yet.

But Jiang Li was suddenly ignited, as if a grievance sprang up from the bottom of his feet for no reason, and went straight to his heart, burning his heart so loudly that he lost his reason.

That's not what being friends is for.

he thinks.

So Jiang Li said without hesitation: "I don't want to say anything. To put it bluntly, I just don't think it's necessary. There's no need to tell me."

According to Jiang Li's sharp-tongued and naughty temperament, he can say more stinging things.

But at this time, I couldn't say more, and I didn't dare to speak too seriously, so I really had no way out.But he was really angry, and he couldn't do it without venting his anger.

Sheng Qianling stood quietly by the cabinet, staring at the river.There was a layer of coolness in his eyes, like the frost rising from the surface of the lake, or the lingering chill left at the end of spring.

He was obviously a young man dressed in white and snowy, but he was a little more mature.

Jiang Li waited for a few seconds, but Sheng Qianling didn't answer. His anger and embarrassment alternated, making him feel unable to bear the weird and embarrassing atmosphere at the moment, so he turned around and walked straight away.

From Time Billiards to Jixian Lane, it takes only a few minutes.The river was walking very fast, and the soles of my feet were blown by the wind.

After returning home, he ate two lollipops before he calmed down slowly.

But as soon as he calmed down, he felt regretful.

Regret that I lost my temper for no reason, and I am also annoyed by my aggressiveness.

Sheng Qianling really didn't need to explain anything to him.

It's clear that he is the one who begged Sheng Qianling to learn techniques with his own face, and he is the one who stalks Sheng Qianling every day. What qualifications and stand does he have to question Sheng Qianling?

After all, Jiang Li was just unwilling to face up to the real reason for his upset.

Is it because Sheng Qianling won't stay here for long, so he can't study the pole technique systematically for a long time?

Or was it because Sheng Qianling had known him for more than a month that Sheng Qianling didn't consider him a friend at all, and he didn't even want to talk about such non-private things as how long he stayed?

Or, is it because of the remaining power of that dream?

Can't figure it out, restless and crazy.

When he went to school the next day, Jiang Li was listless and full of hostility, and he didn't like anything.

The weather is getting hotter, and you only need to wear a white lapel short-sleeved pair with sweatpants printed with the school badge to go to school. Even so, Jiang Li still feels that the heat is very hot in the early morning, and his heart is even more restless.

Chen Shushu walked to the back and saw Jiang Li walking casually with his schoolbag on his shoulders from a distance, so he ran over a few steps faster, put his arm on Jiang Li's shoulder, and said, "Brother Li, what's the matter? You look impatient."

Jiang Li turned to the side in disgust, gritted his teeth and growled: "How many times have you said it, don't touch me!"

Chen Shushu looked surprised, smiled, moved his arms away, and asked: "What happened, it looks like I took explosives early in the morning."

Jiang Li didn't want the girl to chitter and say that he complained about Sheng Qianling not treating him as a friend, so he said casually, "Chen Bo didn't release, I'm not happy."

Chen Shu: "..."

The two walked a few steps side by side, and a few girls trotted past them.

The girls' summer school uniforms are also blue sports trousers, which look like buckets on the body, but one of the girls is very well dressed, with short sleeves that fit well and light trousers.

Chen Shushu stared straight at him, pushed Jiang Li's arm, and motioned him to look with his eyes: "Brother Li, look, that's Xu Xiaolian from Class Two (3)."

Jiang Li raised his eyes irritably, and only saw a side face, which seemed familiar.

But he wasn't interested in staring at other girls all the time. He glanced back at Chen Shushu and said mockingly, "You're like a peacock in heat."

Chen Shushu retorted: "That's better than if you want to open the screen and no one will watch it?"

Jiang Li: "??"

……

Wo Ri Chen Shushu his uncle.

During recess, Chen Shushu went out, Jiang Li couldn't sleep, and sat quietly in a daze.

He was hesitating whether to go to Time Billiards tonight, and if he did, how would he greet Sheng Qianling?

What if Sheng Qianling got angry with him?

What if the relationship can't go back to before the fight?

When he was distracted by his thoughts, Chen Shushu happily came back from the corridor, knelt down beside Jiangli, raised his head and said flatteringly, "Brother Li Ge Li, are you playing billiards when you are old?"

Jiang Li glanced down, frowned and said, "Ask knowingly."

Chen Shushu was very happy, smiling innocently like a baby: "Then you can cover for me tonight, I heard that Xu Xiaolian has an appointment to play nine-ball today, I want to go find her."

"I'll cover you—" Jiang Li blurted out without thinking, the word "Mo" was pronounced with the initial "m", but he swallowed it back alive, and changed into a kind of creepy tenderness, smiling like weathered rain : "Okay, I'll cover you."

Chen Shu found that Jiang Li's face-changing was like a master of Sichuan opera, and he didn't quite understand why he had a sudden convulsion but was normal. Fortunately, the result was good, so he didn't bother to ask.

Jiang Li himself breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhengchou didn't know how to face Sheng Qianling, but Chen Shushu gave him such a good opportunity.

After school, Jiang Li stopped running with the bell ringing as usual, but waited patiently for Chen Shushu.

The two first went to a Hunan rice noodle shop on Liji North Road to eat a bowl of soup noodles, and then walked slowly towards Shiguang Billiards on Wusheng Road.

Jiang Li walked leisurely, put his hands into his trouser pockets, and stretched his trousers up slightly.A pair of legs are slender and straight, and they look very good-looking when they walk.

Chen Shushu leaned over and reconfirmed: "Brother Li, you're sure you're not interested in Xu Xiaolian, right? This isn't a brother, I'm prying into your wall, right?"

Jiang Li was thinking about what he said to Sheng Qianling yesterday, and he didn't think about Xu Xiaolian or Zhou Xiaolian at all, so he nodded perfunctorily: "It doesn't matter, how you chase after it is your business."

Chen Shushu solemnly patted Jiang Li on the shoulder, and commented seriously: "Jiang Li, I knew you were a brother."

Jiang Li held the corner of his mouth and continued walking forward.

In late April, it was getting darker and later.

When the two walked to Lefu Square, it was not completely dark yet.The sun has not yet set, and the remaining orange light illuminates the western sky.

Jiang Li and Chen Shushu went through the gate, walked towards the elevator, took a long breath at the same time, and then let it out.

When entering time billiards, there happened to be a member on the No. 1 table who was facing the pole.

Sheng Qianling, Pan Deng, and Master Hong were sitting on the sofa on one side.Pan Deng was discussing a certain shot just now with the opposing member, while Sheng Qianling was tilting his head slightly, listening to Master Hong talk about the bottleneck he encountered recently in playing golf.

Jiang Li walked in with Chen Shushu, and his eyes first fell on Sheng Qianling who was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt.

Sheng Qianling seemed to sense this gaze, and suddenly looked up.

The two people's eyes met in the air across a No. 1 station and a long aisle, like a silent lightning in the dark night.

Jiang Li's heart shivered, and he felt guilty and flustered. He wanted to walk to the sofa by the No. 1 table, but he couldn't move.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Qianling just glanced at Jiang Li, and then quickly looked away.

He continued to return to the communication with Master Hong and taught him the training method to break through the bottleneck.

Jiang Li's heart was sour to the peak at that moment.

It's like taking a sip of lemon juice soaked in acetic acid. As soon as it enters the throat, it is so sour that it is unbearable. I wish I could dig my throat out.

Chen Shushu didn't understand, so he searched the field with his eyes, approached the river, and whispered excitedly: "Brother Li, where are they?"

Jiang Li raised his head hastily, his consciousness lost his autonomy, so he could only follow Chen Shushu.He pressed down desperately, so that the rise and fall of his chest didn't look obvious.

Xu Xiaolian and a girl were playing on a table in the nine-ball area. Chen Shushu walked over, pretending to meet by chance, and waved hello: "What a coincidence."

Unexpectedly, when Xu Xiaolian looked up and saw Jiang Li, her expression changed.

A face turned from white to red, and then became angry visible to the naked eye.She gritted her teeth and turned her back, pretending not to look at the river while playing, and ignored Chen Shushu's approach.

Chen Shushu didn't know what he did wrong, and felt a little embarrassed.

He had met Xu Xiaolian a few times before, and even though they delivered letters and gifts to Jiangli for her, it wasn't as if he didn't have the affection to say hello.

Looking back at Jiang Li, he saw that Jiang Li's face was also very strange.

Jiang Li naturally knew the reason why Xu Xiaolian turned his face.

——This is exactly the girl who last month, he teased someone close to her face and forced her to answer whether she was handsome.

Jiang Li patted Chen Shushu's shoulder helplessly, and said seriously, "Son, this time I'm sorry for you, Dad."

Chen Shushu was puzzled: "??"

Naturally, Jiang Li couldn't explain to Chen Shushu in front of Xu Xiaolian, but he was too embarrassed to go to the No. 1 ball to find Sheng Qianling.

After weighing it, he shamelessly sat down by the sofa of Xu Xiaolian's table.

Chen Shushu ran to strike up a conversation, and introduced himself as Jiang Li's deskmate, who had met Xu Xiaolian several times.

Xu Xiaolian had a look of resentment, her eyes wished to burst into flames.

Chen Shushu guessed that there was some misunderstanding, and kept wandering around with Xu Xiaolian.When Xu Xiaolian played, he stood aside; when Xu Xiaolian scored a goal, he applauded, his cheeks were so thick that he could be compared with Jiang Li.

Jiang Li sat quietly on the sofa, biting a lollipop, his gaze dropped to the gray carpet.

Sheng Qianling's casual glance just now was like a thorn in his heart.Jiang Li didn't want to have a cold war with Sheng Qianling, but it seemed a bit difficult for him to put on a shy face and pretend nothing happened.

After thinking wildly for a while, Jiang Li felt even more confused.

It was even more chaotic than the ball he exploded with one shot the day he first met Sheng Qianling.

The sofa beside him suddenly sank under the force.

Jiang Li thought it was Chen Shushu, so he ignored it and didn't say anything.

He switched the candy from the left mouth to the right, and from the right to the left.After switching back and forth, my tongue is worn out, and I haven't figured out a way to make peace.

Inevitably more irritable.

The person next to him suddenly said softly, "Jiang Li, don't be angry with me."

The author says:

Jiang Li: No, I'm going to be angry!
