【Love and Producer】Behind

With the ringing of the final exam bell, the students in the whole class instantly relaxed.

After putting the last pen into the pencil case, I was going to go to the toilet. When I got up, I saw many students were already moving freely on the playground outside the window.Although the cold wind was blowing outside, it couldn't stop their excitement at the moment.

That's right, after all, the exams have already been passed, just like what Han Ye said, long live if you pass the test, and it's a waste of extra points!Instead of thinking about scores, let's not look forward to the upcoming winter vacation and Spring Festival.

……

New Year's Eve is the same as in previous years. My parents and I went to grandma's house for New Year's Eve dinner.After all the relatives arrived one after another, they first chatted about the situation of each family and the children's academic performance, etc. After the business exchange, the adults began to form teams. One team fought mahjong, and the other team went to the kitchen to clean up. Just take care of each other and play, knock on the bowl and wait for dinner to be served in the evening.

After losing several rounds of Doudizhu in a row, my cousin, who was watching the battle, couldn't stand it anymore and took my place.After watching a few games, I also lost interest and borrowed my cousin's computer to get online.

I was a little surprised when I found the game icon on the computer desktop. I didn't expect my cousin to play this online game.I quickly logged into my account, and after receiving the New Year's daily rewards, I found that Bai Qi was actually online in the friend list.

"Happy New Year, Brother Bai~(＾▽＾)"

I immediately typed a word of blessing, and added an emoji after struggling for a while.

Thinking of the time when I sneaked out to play games with the two of them a few days ago, I excitedly chatted about the New Year's arrangements and New Year's money.At that time, Bai Qi did not participate in the discussion between me and Han Ye, but at the end, he said lightly that it was no different to him if the New Year was not over, thus ending the topic.

I heard Bai Qi said before that he lived alone, but wouldn't he go home during the Chinese New Year?Although he was curious about this point, Bai Qi didn't seem willing to mention it.

Not long after, I received a reply from Bai Qi.After playing two dungeon games with him, I was dragged by my nephew who rushed into the room to join the crowd to play flying chess, so I had to log off in a hurry.

After dinner, it was customary to watch the Spring Festival Gala and chat by the way.After lying on the sofa for a long time, I stretched, got up and went to the balcony, where people had already set off firecrackers outside.

The clock is close to nine o'clock, but the enthusiasm of the father and uncle's mahjong has not retreated at all, and they seem to have the momentum to play all night.After talking to my mother, I was going to take a ride from my aunt's house and go back first.

I was putting on my shoes at the entrance, when I heard my cousin complaining about me growing taller and being careful not to find a boyfriend in the future.Dare to be angry at me for teasing him at the dinner table that he hasn't had a girlfriend yet, and now he's taking revenge on me.After sending him an ugly grimace, I closed the door softly.

The car drove smoothly, and I leaned against the window of the back seat and casually glanced at the red lanterns hung on the treetops on both sides of the road, the red Spring Festival couplets pasted on the door of the store, and sometimes the brilliant fireworks printed on the windows.Looking at the scene of a family walking happily together on the street, I don't know why I suddenly thought of Bai Qi... Is he still alone now?

"It's good to get here, and it's not convenient to turn around after driving in..." I said to my uncle while holding the front seat.

After thanking them, I got out of the car and didn't change direction until I saw them turn off the main road.

There were actually quite a few people in the Internet cafe today, and it seemed that some of them were dating after the reunion dinner.As soon as I entered, the network administrator on duty reminded me that it is only open until 0:[-] today, and it will be a holiday starting tomorrow.I nodded, indicating that I was just looking for someone.

After shaking around, Bai Qi was not seen.I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little happy, maybe he is with his family now...

After walking back and saying Happy New Year to the network administrator, he was about to leave when a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Why are you here?" Bai Qi stared at me with a surprised expression, holding the drink he just bought in his hand.

"Uh...Brother...didn't you go home?"

Bai Qi looked elsewhere, his clear eyes gradually filled with unfathomable thoughts, and after a vague hum, he turned and walked towards his position.

I may be retarded!How could you ask such a question!I stroked my bangs angrily, and after I paid the internet fee at the service desk, I slowly sat down next to Bai Qi.

Seeing me sit down calmly, Bai Qi drank his drink and glanced at me strangely.

"My parents are playing mahjong at a relative's house nearby... the adults are smoking in the room, and it smells bad so they come out to get some air..." I explained slowly, waiting for the computer to start up.

"Um... big brother, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate downstairs."

I nodded, but my heart murmured.downstairs?Isn't there only a convenience store downstairs...

When I got online, I saw Han Ye who was online on his mobile phone.I sent him a happy new year, and I got a quick response.Han Ye sent a long series of texts complaining about relatives asking about his grades, and complaining about being drunk and crazy in his living room.I told him that I was surfing the Internet with Bai Qi at the old place, and Han Ye sent a series of exclamation points like he was beating chicken blood, and immediately said that he would come over...

After peeking at Bai Qi a few times, I found that he was just leaning on the back of the chair, as if he was letting go, the bangs on his forehead slightly covered his eyes, making it hard to see clearly.I have had this feeling before, no matter whether there is anyone around me or not, there always seems to be a ray of cool wind in Bai Qi's eyes, and I can always see this cold and lonely expression on his face...

"What's wrong?" At this moment, Bai Qi had turned his head and looked over.

A strange idea suddenly popped up in my mind, and the next second I blurted out, "I want to eat hot pot!"

"..." Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, and soon showed an expression that he didn't understand you.

"Suddenly...want to eat..." I scratched my head in embarrassment, feeling a little hot on my face, but added firmly, "I really want to eat!"

After a while, I heard Bai Qi make a sound of breathing, which seemed to be a chuckle, and then said with a little helplessness, "Let's go..."

I couldn't help but grinned excitedly at Zhao Bai and smirked, and immediately sent Han Ye another sentence to wait for you downstairs.

However, it took us two full streets to finally find a hot pot restaurant that was open.In addition to us who just sat down, there was only another table of customers who had almost finished eating.

Probably because there are few people during Chinese New Year, many items on the menu are not available.I took the menu and gave it to Bai Qi first, but he said that he would eat everything and let Han Ye and I order whatever we wanted.

"I was almost beaten to death by my relatives at the New Year's Eve dinner today, and I didn't even have the appetite to eat. It was so miserable!" Han Ye looked like he was about to cry, and then looked over gratefully, "It's still Brother Bai and Senior Sister. Treat me well, I'm starving to death!"

"It deserves it..." I complained, and put the glass full of Coke in front of him, "Anyway, I'm treating guests, so eat more when you're hungry!"

"Wow! Senior sister, you are so kind!" Han Ye was moved, and after a while, he pretended to clear his throat as if remembering something.

"Ahem, that... the happiest thing for me in high school is meeting Brother Bai! Hehe~ Although I have heard of Brother Bai since middle school! Also, I met you, Senior Sister!" Han Ye said sincerely, He excitedly raised his cup and motioned to Bai Qi and me, "In the new year, I will definitely continue to work hard and be a good little brother of Brother Bai!"

I almost laughed out loud at the last sentence, pinched the corners of my mouth to hold it back, glanced at Bai Qi next to me, and found that although his expression was as usual, the corners of his mouth were vaguely hooked, and his hand was already on the cup.I took advantage of the opportunity to fill myself up and then lifted it up. The three glasses collided in mid-air and made a particularly crisp and pleasant sound.

Soon all the dishes were served, and Han Ye talked about the interesting things he had encountered in the past few days while cooking the dishes.The hot taste of the Sichuan-flavored pot bottom made me feel hot all over my face, and I ate a peppercorn along with the meat roll, and it was so numb that I couldn't help sticking out my tongue and fanning it with my hand.

Bai Qi pushed over the glass full of Coke, and as if seeing a savior, I picked it up and took a big sip before letting out a sigh of satisfaction.Seeing that he was still holding a large bottle of drink in his hand and glanced at me, I tactfully put the glass up, and it was quickly filled again.

"By the way, Brother Bai!" Han Ye said, throwing half a pot of beef rolls into the boiling pot, "If you don't go back during the Chinese New Year, you will miss the chance to get lucky money!"

Bai Qi's eyes flickered for a moment, and his slender fingers grabbed the glass. After shaking the brown liquid a few times, he said a toneless sentence, "I'm not interested."

"Eh? But..." Han Ye shifted his gaze from the meat in the pot to Bai Qi with a look of surprise on his face. Just as he was about to say something, I went over with my chopsticks and caught the half of his chopsticks that had just been inserted into the soup.

"Sister???" Han Ye immediately turned to me.

"I've only seen you eating meat since just now!" I glared at him, and with the other hand I pushed the spinach near my table to him, "Stop talking nonsense and eat more vegetables!"

"Huh? Senior, you've been eating shrimp slips just now!"

"You don't care about me, anyway, you give me vegetables!"

"Why don't you eat it yourself?"

"Specially order something for you!"

Han Ye and I were fighting each other face to face, and the two pairs of chopsticks were suppressing each other in the pot.

Just when we were at a stalemate, a colander quietly stretched out and picked up the meat in the pot.Bai Qi shook the spoon and drained the chili oil, got up halfway and took two slices of meat into Han Ye's bowl, then took two slices of meat into my bowl, poured the rest into his own bowl, and dipped it in the sauce without changing his face The material is eaten.

There was silence in the air for two seconds, only the sound of gurgling and boiling at the bottom of the pot was heard.After looking at each other through the smoke rising from the hot pot, Han Ye and I twitched the corners of our mouths and laughed out loud at the same time.

This is probably the best hot pot restaurant I have ever eaten...

……

It may be because I ate the hot pot and served it with iced Coke, my stomach began to feel a little uncomfortable.I patted my still flushed cheeks with hands soaked in cold water, feeling a little more comfortable.

"Boss, please settle the bill." He passed by the bar and said.

"Ah... that little brother with brown hair has come to pay." He pointed to Bai Qi's back as he spoke.

You clearly promised me to treat you...

As soon as I walked out of the store, the cold wind made my whole body tremble. I shrank my neck and buried half of my face in a scarf that smelled like hot pot.

There was some rumbling in my stomach, and I said goodbye to the two people behind me briefly, then walked back with big strides.

I habitually press my stomach with my hands. It may be a psychological effect. I always feel that this is not so uncomfortable. It seems that I need to find stomach medicine when I go home.

I lowered my head and passed through the halo and dark side illuminated by the street lamps. After walking halfway, there was a sound of hurried footsteps from far to near, and I looked back with some doubts.

The appearance of Bai Qi running over is like an old-fashioned film film, played slowly frame by frame under the flickering light.I couldn't help opening my eyes wide, and my heart was inexplicably agitated.

Bai Qi stopped half a meter away from me to take a breath, under the slightly messy hair were glimmering eyes.

"Why are you walking so fast..." There was a hint of complaint in his tone, and he took out something from the big pocket of his coat and handed it over.It is a small bottle of honey citron tea, with cute cartoon patterns printed on the lemon yellow packaging.

"Why are you stunned?" Bai Qi's voice sounded again, and the hand outstretched in mid-air was raised in front of my eyes again.

I took the drink in his hand and it turned out to be hot.Covering the body of the bottle with both hands, feeling the warmth of my palms rushing to my cheeks, I lowered my head in panic.

"This is the only one in the hot box in the convenience store..." Bai Qi said with his hands in his pockets, and he had already walked in front of me.

"Thank you..." The voice was so soft that even I couldn't believe it, I coughed twice to cover it up, "Where's Han Ye?"

"He was urged back by the phone..."

"Brother, you..."

"Han Ye said you looked a little uncomfortable..." Bai Qi turned his head and frowned as I rolled my eyes and pressed my stomach, but seeing that I was far away from him, I actually slowed down a little.

"Stomach pain? You must also drink iced Coke..."

I looked at him with a stern expression on his face, and I couldn't help but laugh.But after staring at this figure a few more times, I felt like crying.Why is walking with this person, even the surrounding wind becomes soft...

"Because... even if I freeze to death, I will say it! You can't drink Coke if it's not iced!" I imitated the movements of the emoji and played Bao behind him.

The speechless expression was fleeting on Bai Qi's face, and then he sighed helplessly, "You are really..."

……

I followed him a step away, and a strange thought came to me deep in my heart.If... if this road can be longer, long enough to go on forever... then I can be with Bai Qi... I can be with him...

I thanked Bai Qi at the door of the house, and when I heard him turn around after a few instructions, I felt a bit of reluctance in my heart.

"Bai Qi..."

"boom!!"

My rambling words were covered by the sudden sound, and the sky above my head was suddenly bright.With a trace of rising blue smoke, the gorgeous fireworks burst into dazzling light in the dark sky.

It's midnight.

"Huh?" He ignored the noise above his head and turned most of his face in his pocket.

I stood there looking at his face, and it took me a while to come back to my senses.

"Happy New Year...Brother..." He said with a big smile on his face.

At this moment, time passed very slowly, the frequency of breathing was very slow, the wind blowing through the white hair seemed to be dancing slowly, the light in his eyes seemed to overflow, it was a brilliance incomparable to the thousands of prosperity above his head, enough light up my whole world...

"Happy New Year..." he said.
