it's okay if you're stupid

When Pei Xianyi came back, Xie Zhi had already taken off his sweaty shirt, took a shower, changed into comfortable clothes, and was casually watching a movie in the small theater.

What was shown on the screen was "Sea Pianist".

"You'ren ever really done for, as long as you've got a good story and someone to tell it to."

The door of the small theater was gently pushed open, and a familiar aura came from behind him. Xie Zhi didn't look back, his eyes were fixed on the screen, and he followed the character and read out this line in a low voice.

"Why are you watching this?" Pei Xianyi observed Xie Zhi's face, "It's not as good as "Your Shadow"."

——Mr. Pei is talking nonsense, talking about the movies that Xie Zhi participated in.

Xie Zhi was unmoved: "You can choose another one to play the one you play in your true colors."

Pei Xianyi was overjoyed, so she sat down with him and watched the rest of the movie.

As the movie ended, the small theater darkened.

In the narrow and dark space, Xie Zhi turned his head and looked at his lover who was close at hand, his eyes were very peaceful: "Are you free tomorrow night?"

"of course."

Xie Zhi pursed his thin lips, and said slowly: "Accompany me to another place."

Pei Xianyi smiled and nodded happily without asking where he was going.

The dinner was also made by Pei Xianyi.

Aunt Sun was deprived of the power to eat three meals a day, and lost her kitchen position. Recently, the road was slippery in the snow and she was suspended from her job at home. She has a lot of resentment.

Her legs and feet are not good, and it is inconvenient to go out in winter.The two employers laughed and listened to the nagging on the phone, asking her to rest at home and come back when the weather improves.

Xie Zhi posted pictures of three meals for a few days in a row, and the abnormal reaction caused fans to be extremely sensitive. In tonight's picture, a pair of slender and strong hands wearing a watch accidentally appeared out of the country.

The fans were silent for a while.

Boiling.

[...President Pei washes his hands for soup? ? ? ? ? 】

[@谢知: Well. 】

Pei Xianyi and Xie Zhi, who had dominated the screen for a few days because of the car accident more than half a month ago, were once again on the trending list.

Dong Min is very satisfied.

Xie Zhi ran away after returning, set his mobile phone to silent, finished his meal calmly with Pei Xianyi, strolled in the backyard to digest food, discussed transforming the basement into a gym, and returned to the study, he opened the music score, Pei Xianyi dealt with it files without interfering with each other.

At that point, he stared at the dishonest Mr. Pei, took medicine, took a bath and went to bed.

Xie Zhi suddenly felt that such an ordinary day was also very good.

The next day, Xie Zhi waited for Pei Xianyi to come back from get off work, and drove to the western suburbs after dinner.

The journey was quite long, and there was a little fine snow floating in the air.Gradually moving away from the bustling urban area, Pei Xianyi vaguely understood where Xie Zhi wanted to go, and his expression became serious.

When we arrived at our destination, the snow was falling more heavily, and the suburbs seemed to be colder than the urban areas.

Xie Zhi raised his eyes, ice and snow fell in his eyes, which made him half-closed his eyes involuntarily.

Baihua Apartment, Building B, Unit 1702, [-].

A few years ago, the Xie family committed suicide collectively.

Probably because of the death, the place is very remote, there are not many residents, the traces of life are very shallow, and the north wind blows the snow, making it even more quiet.The security guard lay lazily in the pavilion, glanced lazily at the two of them, and waved his hand to let them pass.

Pei Xianyi quietly accompanied Xie Zhi into the apartment building, Xie Zhi's footsteps were a bit slow, and he was stunned for a while in front of the elevator.

He was completely unaware that the company went bankrupt.

When he came back, the Xie family's house in a prime location in City A had already been auctioned off.

From the beginning to the end, Xie's father and mother kept it a secret. They asked Xie Zhi to come back and said they would give him a gift and bring him here.

The apartment was cozyly furnished, and his dog was waiting at the door, as usual.They told him the apartment was a graduation present from them.

Xie Zhi didn't notice anything wrong at all.

How can a person doubt the loved ones who love him.

The family has not been reunited for a long time, there is no nanny and aunt here, and Mother Xie clumsily cooks for herself.

She doesn't touch Yangchun water with her ten fingers, so she can't cook anything delicious.But even though the taste was not good, Xie Zhi swallowed it calmly, and had a happy meal with his parents and He Le, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

He guessed that they were finally trying to let go, and his heart came alive, wanting to tell them that a master had invited him and that he was ready to study abroad.

There is an upright piano in the corner of the living room, Xie's father and mother, as usual, urged him to play a piece for them.

Let's talk about it after playing it, Xie Zhi thought.

He sat down obediently and improvised a song.The big dog obediently lay beside the stool, biting his trouser leg.It seems that after the talk, I have to go out for a walk.

Then Mother Xie handed over a glass of milk, and said softly, "Xiao Zhi, can you play another song for Mom and Dad?"

The elevator is slowly climbing up.

Xie Zhi suddenly felt a little cold, and his bones felt unspeakably cold, and his voice paused: "Then I... can't remember clearly."

Pei Xianyi lowered her eyes and looked at him: "Zhizhi, you don't have to force yourself."

Xie Zhi shook his head: "Let's end this memory earlier." After a pause, he said, "I want to play the piano."

Thinking of the boy who sat in the abandoned music classroom and played the piano many years ago, Pei Xianyi felt a sore and astringent pain in his heart.

The police report at the end of the case was very simple, it was an ordinary mass suicide, the motive was simpler, and they were unable to pay off their debts after bankruptcy.

Pei Xianyi never believed that Xie Zhi would commit suicide because of such a thing, but there was no trace of him looking for him.

What happened that day, and it became the nightmare that haunted Xie Zhi for so many years?

The elevator dinged.

Arrived.

B1702 is within easy reach.

Pei Xianyi's hands became stronger unconsciously, and she looked deeply at Xie Zhi: "Do you really want to go in?"

He is not a person who hesitates, but whenever the word Xie Zhi is attached to him, he will become hesitant.

Xie Zhi frowned uncomfortably, looked at him, took out the key, opened the door, and turned on the light.

The apartment that had been dusty for five years was revealed little by little.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but there seems to be a rotten and rotten smell in the air, and everything is covered with dust, as if suddenly entering a gray and dead space from a lively and beautiful world.

The apartment was very messy, the furniture and decorations seemed to have been violently damaged, the original white carpet was also gray, the vases were broken, the decorative paintings were crooked, and the cabinets were covered with scratches.

There is also an upright piano in the corner of the living room, and fragments of milk cups that were accidentally knocked over.

Everything gradually coincides with the vague memory.

The feeling of being out of breath came back suddenly.

Xie Zhi's face was pale, he loosened his neckline, exhaled heavily, and strode towards the next room - the door was open, the mattress was yellow and brown, and there were faint traces of police evidence collection.

He stared here in a daze for a while, then walked towards the next room.

The layout of this room is similar to that of the next door, but there is a big hole in the bay window, the glass windows covered with dirt, the snow-white walls, and the ground are stained with blood, the dark red blood is shocking, and there is a ring of hair on the edge of the glass. The original color is no longer discernible.

Xie Zhi's mind buzzed.

After stepping into this apartment, the fuzzy memory became clear little by little, like a window that wiped off the fog.

Pei Xianyi called him in a low voice: "You know?"

Xie Zhi didn't even notice his lover's call, touched the window with trembling hands, and retracted as if getting an electric shock.With severe pain in his head, he suddenly stumbled back to the living room and sat down on the piano bench.

Pei Xianyi followed, frowning, anxious: "Thank you!"

Xie Zhi sat blankly on the piano bench, maintaining a stiff posture. After a long while, when Pei Xianyi was about to carry him out of here, he turned his head with red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Xianyi, I... I remembered."

Two lines of tears fell from the pair of eyes that were always calm and clear, and fell down the cheeks.

Pei Xianyi was terrified, frowning deeply, knelt down and grabbed his hand: "Baby?"

Xie Zhi's lips moved: "I remember...after playing that piece, I was very sleepy."

He was surprisingly sleepy, his consciousness was hazy, he wanted to speak but couldn't, and he vaguely heard his parents arguing.

"...Do we really need to go this far?"

"What else can we do? Relatives? Let's run away when we see relatives! Friends? Thank God that your friends don't make trouble!"

"But we don't have to drag Xiaozhi, he's still so young..."

"You also know that he is so young. He doesn't understand anything except playing the piano. How will he live when we leave? Ah? How do you want my little Xie Zhi to live alone with debts? He left How can you bear to leave our son behind? I can't let him go!"

His mother's hysterical roar pierced his eardrums, and Xie Zhi lay on the piano, thinking vaguely: No mother, I have been a private piano teacher quietly, and I have also worked part-time. I have healthy limbs and the ability to support myself. weak.

"...You're right," Father Xie seemed to be convinced, muttering, "We're gone, what if someone bullies him again. Those people will definitely bully him."

Xie Zhi's remaining consciousness suddenly smelled a danger that sent chills down his spine.

But his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't open them.

Dogs bark beside him, and he tries to reach out.

Snapped.

The milk glass in his hand fell to the ground.

He was carried into the room and put on the bed.Xie father and mother took turns giving him a goodnight kiss.

"Xiao Zhi, you won't have to wake up in pain from now on."

"Let our family go to sleep as usual."

"Don't be afraid, Mom and Dad are next door."

Dumpling was still barking fiercely and flusteredly.His consciousness no longer struggled, and gradually fell silent.

The dream was suffocating and terrifying, and he was deeply trapped in it, feeling that life was passing by, and he couldn't open his eyes no matter what.But he clearly knew what happened next.

The anxious Samoyed wailed, destroyed and tore it everywhere, but it soon discovered that the hostess and hostess who played with it in the past were insane and insane.After they also took sleeping pills and lay down on the bed, he rushed back to Xie Zhizai's room and closed the door with all his might.

It bit hard at Xie Zhi's skirt, whining.But it couldn't wake Xie Zhi up, so it howled angrily and hit the glass window.

Bang.

Bang.

Bang.

One after another, one after another, the blood splashed out, staining the hair of this proud and beautiful snow-white dog red, it was completely enraged, and finally when it was exhausted, it slammed into the glass with a bang.

Then it fell.

In the seventeen-story building, the big dog fell to the ground.Such a big movement was quickly discovered. The property called the police and rushed up with the key.

Xie Zhi's room was ventilated through the hole covered with dog hair and blood, and his life was saved.

Whispering to the end, Xie Zhi's voice in his throat was already broken, and he even made a slightly choked sound.Tears covered that face, he grabbed Pei Xianyi's collar tightly, gritted his teeth, and wept silently against his neck, not even daring to use too much force, convulsing and gasping.

This tragedy was finally revealed by him bloody.

Pei Xianyi felt a chill run down his spine.The suicide in the apartment had been an understatement. He had never expected it to be so tragic.

He hugged Xie Zhi tightly, kissed his hair repeatedly, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't bear it, Zhizhi, baby, cry out, I'm here."

The voice next to his ear was infinitely tolerant and gentle, Xie Zhi trembled all over, and then he finally burst into tears, venting his pain, grievance, sadness, and resentment.

At the end of the cry, he vaguely seemed to have returned to a long time ago, his consciousness was erratic, and his whole body seemed to be in the fog, stepping on the clouds.

When I woke up, I was no longer in that apartment.

Xie Zhi was covered with Pei Xianyi's coat, and Pei Xianyi was walking steadily on his back, as if he was carrying him from the valley to the hillside a few years ago.

He is also his redemption.

In the distance is their car.

The sky is gray indigo, the moon is high, and the night is creeping quietly.

Xie Zhi was silent for a while, then asked in a hoarse voice: "Mr. Pei, can you not let go of loving someone?"

Pei Xianyi paused.

He turned his head and looked at Xie Zhi gently: "It's reluctance."
