Hearing the clicking sound, Ye Li heaved a sigh of relief.He quickly waved his hands to say "enough is enough", and ran to Gu Yu to get back the phone.

Glancing at the photo on the screen, Ye Li stared blankly, paused for a long time, and then quickly sent it back to the safe place of Qiu Mu: "Let's go, let's continue going up."

Liang Tao stood not far below and watched them quietly, without going up the mountain road to add confusion to the camera.It was not until the team set off again that they lifted their feet and continued to move up the mountain.

At noon, after a long climb each, the three reached the top of the mountain smoothly.Looking at the vast land and the mountains in the distance, even though his own height has not changed at all, he still feels a sense of pride.

The students sat in every corner of the mountain talking and laughing, and several of them sat together and had lunch.

Gu Yu thought about it, and felt that it was not good to keep ignoring Liang Tao's behavior.Since Ye Li and the others have forgiven Liang Tao, but now they don't talk to Liang Tao because of him, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

"What are you going to have for lunch?"

Liang Tao never thought that Gu Yu would talk to him, and his eyes were a little surprised.He replied honestly: "Bread and milk."

Gu Yu said, "My mother made a lot of sandwiches, do you want some?"

Seeing this scene, Qiu Mu and Ye Li looked at each other, and then smiled tacitly.

The four set out to find a place to sit and have lunch.With sharp eyes, Gu Yu found a cool stone that could avoid direct sunlight and be blown by the wind, and sat down.

"Thank you for finding this place."

From the inside, you can easily see the outside through the covered vegetation.But from the outside, you can only see a bunch of plants, and you can't find the open space behind it at all.

Gu Yu cheerfully took out the bento box from her schoolbag, and opened the lid like a treasure to share with her friends: "There are many flavors. Cheese, meat floss, eggs here, and vegetables here..."

Qiu Mu and Ye Lishun obediently took a sandwich each, and said in Gu Yu's expectant eyes, "It's delicious."

Gu Yu smiled complacently: "My mother's sandwiches are super delicious."

Liang Tao held the sandwich in his hand, pinched the bread underneath with both hands, and took a bite from the sharp corner, eating very politely.Then say: "Delicious."

Gu Yu said generously: "There are still a lot here! Just take it!"

"Just take it!"

The overlapping voices made Gu Yu stunned for a moment.He turned his head, looked outside, and found that unconsciously, another group of people sat opposite them, but this group of people failed to discover the "geomantic treasure land" on Gu Yu's side, so they could only sit together under the scorching sun. It's time for lunch.

"It's Liu Yuan." Gu Yu said, "They also eat here."

The sentence just now was said by the girl on the bus who said she had biscuits for Liu Yuan.After Gu Yu's voice stopped, the group of four could easily hear the conversation of several people outside.

The girl and her friend took out a lot of snacks from the bag, put them on the picnic cloth on the ground, and let Liu Yuan and the others eat whatever they wanted.The two boys looked simpler, and took some drinks out of the empty and shriveled schoolbags meaningfully.

This is a group of two men and two women.The girl and another boy are childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship. This time, he and that girl, as well as the girl's new good friend in this class, and Liu Yuan are a group of four.

The girl was surprised: "No way, Xiaoqianqian, you didn't bring lunch!"

Xiaoqianqian is the girl's nickname for her bamboo horse, and there is only one girl in the class who can call that tall guy with a cropped cut and looks very "cool" Xiaoqianqian.

The boy said, "It seems to be left at home."

The girl said helplessly: "Really, why are you so sloppy!" After finishing speaking, she took out two food boxes from her bag, and handed one of them to the boy: "Fortunately, I prepared an extra one."

Another girl asked strangely: "Why do you bring two copies?"

After hearing this, the girl's expression was a little embarrassed.Glancing at Liu Yuan secretly, he turned his head and said, "It just so happened that I did a little more!"

So everyone present understood that the girl originally planned to give Liu Yuan an extra portion, but now that her bamboo horse had nothing to eat, she handed over the lunch box to him.

The boy surnamed Qian took the bento and ate it with peace of mind. Liu Yuan couldn't just say "this is my food" and grab the bento.The topic changed to another place in the tacit understanding of the four.

The girl said, "Liu Yuan, where's your lunch?"

Liu Yuanyun said calmly: "My family said that since I went out in autumn and bought snacks, it was enough, and no food was prepared for me."

The girl was surprised: "What! Your snacks are only two packs of plums, how can you be full!"

Liu Yuan's eyes were half closed, and he said desolately: "Mmm... I'm sorry, I made you worry."

The girl looked distressed, and quickly took two packs of potato chips: "Then you eat this!"

Liu Yuan sighed: "If you eat too many potato chips, your stomach will feel bad."

Everyone was silent.

"Then..." The girl looked down at her bento, thinking that she couldn't eat from the same bowl as Liu Yuan, and there was only one pair of chopsticks.How about giving this to Liu Yuan and eating potato chips by himself.

The boy surnamed Qian said: "Hurry up and eat, Liu Yuan can never eat a girl's bento like you, so let you eat potato chips."

The girl was taken aback, thinking it was true, Liu Yuan might feel that this kind of behavior hurt his self-esteem after hearing what he said.So he said: "Well, then I will eat."

After speaking, he opened the lid of the lunch box and began to eat.

Liu Yuan's smile suddenly froze, and he sat there for a long time without moving.There was an imperceptible mocking smile on the corner of the boy's surname Qian's mouth, he gave Liu Yuan a sideways glance, buried his head in his meal, and deliberately didn't look at him.

Others are sitting in their seats and eating delicious meals, but I can only eat cold and nutritious junk food.Thinking of this, the corners of Liu Yuan's eyes hung down, revealing a look of displeasure, his expression was cold.

Gu Yu was eating the food made by Aunt Huang, and was depressed why he had to eat so many snacks just now, and now he couldn't eat any more.Raising his head, he accidentally saw Liu Yuan's expression, and was taken aback by his eyes.

"Whoa!" He groaned.

Qiu Mu, Ye Li, and Liang Tao all looked at Gu Yu, and Qiu Mu asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Gu Yu's expression was uncertain, she didn't know what to say.In the end, he lowered his voice subconsciously, pointed to Liu Yuan outside and said, "I, I seemed to see Liu Yuan was very angry just now."

Liang Tao looked out suspiciously: "Who is Liu Yuan?"

"Just the poor student."

Liang Tao suddenly said, "Oh, him."

Ye Li and Qiu Mu both had a "nothing strange" look in their eyes, and said, "I'm annoyed that others have food, but I don't, so I'm not happy."

Both Gu Yu and Liang Tao looked at them in surprise and said, "Why?"

He didn't bring food to eat, so he would be hungry at noon, isn't it normal?If you are really unhappy, you should have been unhappy before you came here today, so why are you showing your face to the students now.

"Isn't Liu Yuan just like this?" Ye Li said very bluntly: "Because I am a poor student, it is natural to ask everyone to care about him and take care of him. That kind of attitude that doesn't know how to be grateful, I think Very uncomfortable."

Qiu Mu spoke softer than Ye Li, but he still said, "It's easy to tell whether it's really lowering your posture, or deliberately using the performance of lowering your posture to elevate yourself."

Ye Lidao: "The principal obviously gave him all tuition and miscellaneous fees, but yesterday he dragged a group of people to eat bread outside the cafeteria. What is this? Is it a show?"

Gu Yu said: "It's too exaggerated, maybe it's just..."

Ye Li: "Seeing Liu Yuan's expression now, do you still say it's a 'misunderstanding'?"

Ye Li and Qiu Mu have good eyesight on people. Does Liu Yuan really think of himself as "It's okay, I confess my identity just to let everyone not worry about me", or "I am unwilling and the family conditions are difficult" , please come and help me", as you can tell by looking closely.

The other students are young and have a positive outlook on things.He has a kind heart, so it is impossible to think that Liu Yuan is selfish and has deep thoughts. Instead, he tries to help Liu Yuan so that he can spend a happy campus life.

"Sheng Mien, Dou Michou." Ye Li said: "I don't know what kind of life Liu Yuan lived before. But now he has obviously gone mad." He and Liu Yuan's situation is somewhat similar, so he has the most right to speak : "Always help him unconditionally, let him think that everyone should help him, and it is a matter of course. Until one day someone has to reject him for some reason, he will not feel that others have helped him enough, and he is grateful to the other party. After doing something in the past, you will still think that person is arrogant, heartless, and has a problem with character, and maybe you will hate him because of it."

Qiu Mu looked at the eyes of Liu Yuan staring at the boy surnamed Qian, with hatred in his eyes, and said, "It's not like there are no such people." Before looking at Liu Yuan repeatedly, she felt that this person was not worth dating. Should be avoided.

It was the first time Gu Yu saw this kind of thing, she just said "oh my god" in a foolish way, and then expressed her disbelief.

Ye Li snorted disdainfully, and said, "If you're really that hungry, you'd still dislike it even though there are so many things to eat beside you."

Gu Yu: "Yes, I think potato chips can also fill your stomach!"

"It's not about those snacks." Ye Li said, "I mean those that grow on the ground."

Gu Yu wondered, "Huh?"

Ye Li looked around, stretched out his hand and picked a small grass with a small fruit, whose name he didn't know: "This is edible, and it's very sweet."

Gu Yu couldn't tell whether it was true or false for a while, and asked doubtfully, "Is this really sweet?"

Ye Li picked off the small red fruit, blew on the dust on it, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed: "Really."

Gu Yu followed Ye Li's example and went to find fruit to eat together, but was stopped by Ye Li when he was about to eat the fruit: "Don't eat this kind of fruit with a little bit of blue color, it's not sweet, and it's also very astringent. "After speaking, a look of disgust subconsciously appeared on his face, as if recalling the taste at that time.

Gu Yu suddenly stopped, and together with Liang Tao and Qiu Mu, stared at him without saying a word.

"Why..." In the middle of speaking, Ye Li finally realized what stupid thing he did just now, and regretted: "Sorry..."

When Qiu Mu and the others saw Ye Li apologizing, their expressions became even more uncomfortable.

"Actually, it's not that..." Ye Li said, "I'm just greedy, how can I be full with this kind of food..."

Qiu Mu recalled what Ma Bin said when he first met Ye Li, and Qiu Mu still remembers it fresh.

"I saw him pick up moldy bread and eat it! He's a wild dog!"

Qiu Mu stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Ye Li's head, but when Ye Li resisted, she withdrew her hand: "Okay, it's time to eat."

Outside, Liu Yuan had already had a conflict with the girl who was with his childhood sweetheart.Liu Yuan's words against the boy surnamed Qian angered the girl, and now the two are arguing.

"It won't take long for Liu Yuan to be seen through by everyone." Ye Li intentionally shifted the topic to Liu Yuan, so that the two of them could quickly forget about their own affairs: "Originally, this kind of thing can be seen by everyone after a long time. There is no need for anyone to expose it, he will expose himself."

Gu Yu sighed, "Fortunately, I still wanted to treat him better."

Ye Li said with a lot of experience: "To be a human being, you must know how to be grateful." The kindness of a drop of water must be repaid by a spring.He glanced at Qiu Mu, remembered the plan he had made before the autumn outing, and nodded again: "Well, I should be grateful."

Liang Tao was called by Ye Li to throw out the trash together.

Originally, Liang Tao had been very quiet and would not take the initiative to disturb Ye Li.But now I finally couldn't help but wonder: "Ye Li, the trash can..." I have already passed three trash cans, why don't I throw it away.

Could it be that he was deliberately taking him to a place where no one was around... Liang Tao subconsciously thought of the worst.

Ye Li said: "Yes, I saw it." After speaking, Ken finally threw the garbage bag in his hand into the trash can, and then patted the dust on his palm.

"Go back." Liang Tao said.

But Ye Li said a word, which made Liang Tao couldn't help but start thinking wildly again.

"What's the hurry? The gathering starts at four o'clock. It's much faster to go down the mountain than to go up the mountain. It takes at most two hours to get there. It's hard to get here, let's go shopping first."

Liang Tao was beating drums in his heart, not sure what Ye Li meant.In the end, he didn't know whether he wanted to take the opportunity to make amends or what, he deliberately pretended that he didn't see anything wrong, and said, "Then let's go shopping." He didn't even mention going back to find Qiu Mu and the others.

Ye Li sized him up, with a smile on his lips, and led Liang Tao towards the opposite direction of Qiu Mu and the others.

Qiu Mu and Gu Yu stayed in place and waited for nearly 10 minutes, but they did not see Ye Li and Liang Tao.Gu Yu worried: "Are you getting lost? Do you want to make a phone call?"

Qiu Mu looked down at the text message sent not long ago, immersed in guilt and surprise: "Huh? Ah..."

Gu Yu asked suspiciously: "Didn't you hear clearly? I said whether I should go and find Xiao Li."

"No, no need."

Because Ye Li just sent him a text message telling him to "enjoy the world of two".Ye Li took Liang Tao to another place, and let him play with Xiao Yu without worrying about them.

what does this mean!

exposed?Sure enough, it's still exposed!

Qiu Mu collapsed a little.If it wasn't for Gu Yu still in front of him, he would definitely call Ye Li in a frenzy immediately, asking him what the text message meant.

But......

The world of two...

Qiu Mu said: "Xiaoli ran into the class teacher on the way back. The teacher asked them to do something, and they couldn't come back for a while. So he sent a text message to tell me, let the two of us go to play first, without waiting for them."

Gu Yu: "Hey, no way!" It's too much for the teacher to order Ye Li in such a rare autumn outing.

Qiu Mu smiled and said: "Xiao Li has already passed away, let's just listen to him and go play for a while."

Gu Yu could only say: "Then..."

Packed up and ready, the two followed the signs on the small road to the scenic spots ahead.

Stepping on the steps one by one, the sound of turbulent water came to my ears, Gu Yu looked at the stream flowing slowly under her feet, and said, "Does the waterfall below gather from here?"

Qiu Mu said: "It should be."

"It's hard to imagine that the water flow here is so small, but it can turn into a waterfall when it reaches the foot of the mountain."

Qiu Mu: "Maybe what we see is just a diversion of many water sources, and there may be many waterways in other places."

"..." Gu Yu was silent for a while, then said, "What happened to Xiao Li just now."

Qiu Mu: "What's wrong?"

"I think Xiao Li is very smart. Because he is so smart, sometimes I have to think for a long time before I can understand why Xiao Li does something." Gu Yu squatted down, soaking his palms in the cold stream , swaying back and forth unconsciously: "Actually, I didn't really like Xiaoli's sense of distance from us before. He always didn't want us to help with what to eat and use. He seemed to treat us as outsiders and always said 'no, No need', I feel very uncomfortable. Now that I see Liu Yuan, I seem to understand."

Qiu Mu said: "Have you finally understood?"

Gu Yu said embarrassedly: "Well... because Xiaoli cares about us very much, he is more afraid of being bored by us. Although we always say 'I am very happy to help you', Xiaoli can't really Just don't think about anything like this. He has to grasp the scale and keep a good distance. When we feel happy for him, he won't make us feel troubled because of him. In the end, I still let him worry Yes. While I was giggling and thinking that everyone had fun playing together, he had been thinking about these things from a long time ago."

Qiu Mu laughed: "You don't need to worry about this kind of thing, Xiaoli is used to it, because he has a very strong personality, so this kind of thing is not as heavy as you think."

Gu Yu frowned in dissatisfaction: "What are you talking about? Since Xiao Li is strong, don't you need to be considerate of him?"

Qiu Mu quickly explained: "That's not what I meant."

Subconsciously, Qiu Mu regards Gu Yu as a lover who should be taken care of and pleases, and regards Ye Li as a friend or family member who is equal to her.So he subconsciously spoke to Ye Li with impoliteness, because he knew that Ye Li was the "it doesn't matter" kind.

Qiu Mu was afraid that Gu Yu would hold grudges against him because of this, so he explained repeatedly: "Xiao Li doesn't like to accept help from others. He is very independent and wants to do everything by himself. The process of not relying on others' help can make He feels he is capable and will be at ease."

Gu Yu: "Is that so?"

Qiu Mu nodded: "So sometimes if you don't intervene and let him do it by himself, it will make him more comfortable."

Gu Yu said: "Then we are always clinging to him like this, asking him to come up with something for us to help him with, isn't it..."

Qiu Mu: "This is Xiaoli's 'fun'. He must be very happy to see us helping him."

Gu Yu felt very frustrated: "In the end, I still caused trouble for Xiaoli...why can't I be as smart as you two."

Sometimes I always feel that I can't get into the conversation between Ye Li and Qiu Mu.

"I don't know, isn't it good?" Qiu Mu gave an answer that was completely different from Gu Yu's idea: "We help Xiaoli because we hope that Xiaoli can live happily. Xiaoli accepts our help because Because he wants us to feel at ease. If you tell Xiao Li what you said just now, not only will he not be happy that you noticed this, but he will be very annoyed—do you know why?"

Gu Yu asked, "Why?"

"Because Xiaoli has been trying hard not to let you notice this." Qiu Mu said: "He wants the two of us to never find that he is forcing himself. The happy and carefree Gu Yu before It is the person he wants to protect. If you feel burdened because of his protection, he will blame himself for his incompetence, causing you trouble. The previous efforts will be in vain.”

While speaking, it never occurred to him that he might be in the position of being guarded by Ye Li, just like Gu Yu.

Because he didn't want to burden him, even if he forced himself, Ye Li would not reveal the slightest hint.So, just like Gu Yu, she didn't notice at all when she was accommodated.

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment: "Is...is it like this?"

Qiu Mu said: "Of course it is. So don't feel embarrassed because of this kind of thing. For Xiaoli, this is the best way he chose to get along with. We just need to respect his choice."

Gu Yu nodded, half understanding: "I understand."

Thinking that this was the end of the topic, Qiu Mu wanted to have a perfect time with Gu Yu, but found that two of Gu Yu's three sentences were related to Ye Li.The topic was changed several times, but Gu Yu brought it back unknowingly.

For example, now, Qiu Mu said: "Let's eat ice cream after going down the mountain."

"Yeah! By the way, let's buy one for Xiao Li, but where did he go? Why is there no news at all?"

"..."

Qiu Mu was very helpless.If it wasn't clear that Gu Yu had absolutely no intentions in that regard, he would definitely be extremely jealous now: "Why does Xiao Yu keep talking about Xiao Li?"

Gu Yu was puzzled for a moment, then came to his senses, and said with a smile, "It seems to be true!"

"Usually when the three of us are together, you don't think about Xiaoli so much." Qiu Mu couldn't help but said bitterly: "Do you like being with Xiaoli more than me?"

Gu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "No. It's just that we are usually three people together, and suddenly one is missing. I can't help but think about where that person went and what he was doing... If Xiaomu If I'm not here, I'll tell Xiaoli about you."

Qiu Mu was completely defeated by Gu Yu's "big happy family" aura that permeated her body.

Because he wanted to be alone with Gu Yu, he was ashamed of the idea of ​​driving Ye Li away, and he didn't consider Ye Li's thoughts at all-it was obviously a rare autumn outing, but Ye Li took the initiative to leave the team and run far away. In order to perfect myself.

What about Ye Li himself?Did Ye Li enjoy this trip well?From the beginning to the end, Gu Yu was thinking about his friends around him wholeheartedly, and hoped that everyone would have a good time.In contrast, this kind of behavior of my own is a bit unreasonable.

So he said: "It's been so long, Xiaoli should be done. I'll make a call and ask."

Gu Yu nodded and said with a smile, "Yeah!"
