He likes you

Shang Yan's room is as big as He Yao's house.The window was opened a crack, and the wind moved wantonly around the room, carrying the smell of grass and soil that was almost stenchy.

He Yao was sitting on the sofa in his room, and a silver box was opened on the coffee table, inside were old photos of Shang Yan when he was a child.Group photo with mother and siblings in father's family.

He Yao flipped through these photos one by one, and in the group photos, he could always spot Shang Yan at a glance: "You have looked more like your father since you were a child, and you don't like to smile very much."

"My father asked us not to laugh when we were photographed."

"Oh, no wonder you all have the same expressions." He Yao turned to the next few photos, "You only smile when you take pictures with your mother."

"These photos were taken secretly." Shang Yan took one of the photos and said, "My father doesn't know about these photos until today, and my mother hid them very well."

In the last three photos, a girl with blond curly hair is standing with Shang Yan, very close to Shang Yan.Her body was consciously approaching Shang Yan, and Shang Yan stood upright, slightly sideways, consciously keeping a distance.

"Who is this girl?" He Yao asked, pointing at the beautiful girl.

"An uncle's daughter."

"She likes you, these photos are next to you. She always leans towards you."

"I never liked her." Shang Yan wanted to say that he only liked He Yao.But these truths that could be spoken casually in the past, turned around in the throat now, and then swallowed them back.He seems to have realized the preciousness of the word "like", and he can no longer say it easily.

"Have you ever liked someone before?" He asked He Yao.

He Yao's fingers brushed against the yellowed photo: "I used to have many girlfriends."

Shang Yan felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "How many are there?"

"Four."

"Why aren't you together later?"

He Yao said: "We are all separated at a fork in the road of life, because we have different choices for the future."

He Yao put the photo back into the silver box, Shang Yan closed the lid without saying a word, and put the box in the drawer of the bookcase where it was originally placed.

He Yao looked at Shang Yan's back, what he saw just now, the childhood Shang Yan in the photo, flashed before his eyes again.

"Your mother wants you to go to the army, will you go?"

Shang Yan replied: "I used to not be able to."

He Yao's nose suddenly became sore: "What about now?"

Shang Yan turned around and quietly walked back to He Yao's side.

He Yao got the answer from his silence, lowered his head and smiled softly, "If you have a path you want to choose, just choose that path and go on. There is no reason to stop for anyone."

It's just that parting is a painful thing after all.If it is possible not to face it, He Yao hopes to avoid it for the rest of his life.

Shang Yan sat beside He Yao and grabbed his hand.As if growing up in an instant, the tone became mature: "I heard people say that parting is for a better reunion."

He Yao lowered his head and gave a soft "hmm".Shang Yan couldn't see his face hidden under the hair, but saw his tears suddenly fall down after a second, dripping on Shang Yan's hand holding him.

"I used to think that in this house, even if I was alone, I could live a lifetime." Shang Yan said, "After I met you, I felt that as long as I was with you, even if it was only in a small room Sitting on the sofa watching TV and selling ice cream together, we are very happy." They listened quietly to the wind blowing away. After a long time, Shang Yan continued, "But I suddenly thought, I want to be better. I want to be better I want to be with you, thinking about the days to come, it is not you who protect me, but I who protect you."

He Yao's drooping head never lifted up, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and with great difficulty, he let out another "um", suppressed crying, held his breath tightly, and choked everything in his sore throat .

Shang Yan went to wipe his tears, and smiled unconsciously: "Did you cry when you broke up with your girlfriend before?"

He Yao grabbed Shang Yan's clothes with his hands, turned away from the face held by him, closed his eyes, bit his lips, and replied with a sob: "No, this is the first time."

Shang Yan listened to his suppressed sobs.After a long time: "Just once, I already feel very painful." The moment He Yao's tears fell, he felt as if his heart had been hollowed out by someone.

He hugged He Yao into his arms, and the clothes on his shoulders were soaked by He Yao's crying in a short while.

"Wait for me to come back." Shang Yan hugged him tightly, and touched the side of his face with his lips, "I will definitely come back to find you." He whispered, as if the wind was blowing, "He Yao, I will always love you. "Chapter 73 Finale

Feng Xuan and Qiao Mo's high school classmates held a class reunion for the first time in more than ten years.They said that Qiao Mo couldn't pretend to be youthful. Even though he was the class monitor, he didn't intend to organize the students to get together these years. In the end, the former class committee members who loved to be active organized this class reunion.

Feng Xuan told Qiao Mo with a smile what the students said in the chat group.

Qiao Mo said, it's not that he can't pretend to be youthful.

It's just that there was only one scenery in his youth, and he reunited with this scenery, and he didn't care about other scenery.

There were only a dozen students who came, but the atmosphere of the restaurant was still very lively by them.

Qiao Mo was dressed in black, and Feng Xuan was sitting beside him in white trousers and a white coat.The two sit together in contrasting colors.

Compared with two years ago, Feng Xuan's appearance is much more mature. After cutting her hair short, her eyebrows and eyes are fully revealed, and she looks more like a mature man.

Sitting opposite Feng Xuan and Qiao Mo, Sun Siyan took a sip of wine and stared at Feng Xuan up and down: "I didn't expect that my elder brother actually passed the postgraduate entrance examination. See how he is doing now. "

Feng Xuan smiled and showed her snow-white teeth, raised her hand and wiped her fist: "Did you not expect me to do this?"

Sun Siyan was so drunk from the drink, he immediately retreated the same way, sobered up, waved his hands and said, "Ah, no, no, I thought of it, I thought of it. I just used exaggerated words." He threw Qiao Mo Looking for help, he hoped that Qiao Mo would take good care of this elder brother whose violent factors had not been completely eliminated.

Qiao Mo gave Sun Siyan a look of "I can't help you", and put his hand on Fengxuan's shoulder, as if supporting him, which made Sun Siyan even more frightened.

"I said before that our eldest brother will be able to do it." Yan Shudai took the hindsight in time, "Not only did he get admitted to a good school, but now he has successfully graduated and entered a top-notch company in China." He put his hand on his mouth On the side, whispered to Fengxuan, "I don't think it will take a few years for you to be worth more than the monitor."

"This is too much!" Sun Siyan lowered his voice.

Feng Xuan turned her head a little triumphantly, and looked at Qiao Mo.

Qiao Mo smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to it."

"Yeah, now that you said that, I remembered." Sun Siyan said, "The company where the elder brother went, isn't the relationship with the monitor's company, isn't it a competitor?"

Qiao Mo said: "He did it on purpose. He did this homework before submitting his resume."

Sun Siyan frowned deeply, and worried for them: "Then when you get along normally, don't you feel like there are spies from other companies standing around you? Brother, what do you think?" Both businessmen, Sun Siyan considered In every aspect, it always fits reality but has nothing to do with him.

Yan Shudai put it bluntly: "Isn't this more interesting?"

Sun Si tilted his head back, stunned by the culture shock.Thinking in admiration, Yan Shudai is indeed the one who successfully sold Qiao Mo and Feng Xuan's fan fiction to the director of a web drama.

Several class committee members in an active atmosphere over there cast their eyes on the two most conspicuous men in the restaurant.

In school more than ten years ago, the two of them stood out the most conspicuously.Now after more than ten years, they are still the most conspicuous.

The study committee member who had the biggest opinion on Fengxuan toasted him with a glass of wine.After drinking a glass of wine, I began to tell the truth: "Feng Xuan, let me tell you the truth. When I was in school, I thought you were really difficult to get along with. When I saw you approaching the monitor, I was annoyed. I just thought Can you stop spoiling those who love to learn in the class."

Fengxuan burst out laughing: "Did you hate me so much?"

The school committee blushed with embarrassment: "I was young at that time, and I was really prejudiced against you. I apologize for that. But I didn't expect that I would see you again today—" The school committee paused for a while, wiped its nose, "I actually thought a little chasing you."

Feng Xuan's eyelids twitched, her smile gradually became shy and awkward, and she leaned towards Qiao Mo: "It's not necessary to change your views so completely."

Qiao Mo, who lowered his head to arrange Fengxuan's tableware neatly, immediately raised his eyes to glance at the school committee member.He looked at the school committee whose name he couldn't remember clearly, and said, "The most important thing in life is not to forget the original intention."

Sun Siyan snapped his fingers in front of her: "Wake up. In more than ten years, your dream has passed from the squad leader to our elder brother?"

The study committee member snorted, "I'm just joking." She covered her mouth and smiled, pointing to Qiao Mo and Feng Xuan's hands, "You two wear rings so clearly, I'm not blind."

Hearing these words, Qiao Mo looked a little better, and turned Fengxuan's ring finger, which was the same style of ring as he was wearing.

There was a female classmate over there who always seemed to have a bad complexion. Qiao Mo remembered that the girl was called Ma Xiaoxiao. She had a crush on Fengxuan back then, and the whole class knew about her crush. It could almost be called a clear love.

"Squad leader, I offer you a toast." Ma Xiaoxiao poured a glass of wine and toasted Qiao Mo.

Qiao Mo politely had a drink with her.

Ma Xiaoxiao used to have a restrained personality and didn't like to talk much.He will not pick out the past as a joke like that school committee member.Ever since she entered the door, she never dared to let go of Fengxuan's eyes.It wasn't until seeing the same ring worn by Feng Xuan and Qiao Mo, and the interaction after sitting together, that there was a sense of relief.

It can be said that Qiao Mo had empathy for her.So in front of her, he didn't have too much contact with Fengxuan.

After the group finished eating, Feng Xuan raised his hand and said, "Does anyone want dessert after dinner? Next door is the ice cream shop opened by my friend. His ice cream is so delicious, I can ask him to deliver it."

Most people said yes, only one or two women who wanted to lose weight asked Fengxuan if there was any juice.

Feng Xuan said, "I'll send a message to him right now. Who wants ice cream? Who wants drinks?"

"I'm ice cream!"

"I also have ice cream!"

"I watermelon juice."

"Dragon Juice."

The students reported the "dish name" to Fengxuan.A female classmate who pressed her mobile phone to fly after entering the door picked up her bag and said, "Go ahead and eat, I have to go first."

A male classmate asked gossipingly, "Where are you going in a hurry? Haven't you been single all this time? Are you still dating?"

The female classmate anxiously put her bag on her shoulders and walked out: "I'm in a hurry to see my children."

The classmate who understood better opened his eyes: "What kid? Crystal7?"

The female classmate who had hurried to the door stopped in her tracks, turned around and said with a smile, "Tell me to beat you to death. It's S.Kings, the group that our family Haiyou is in!"

After the female classmate left, several classmates laughed and said, "The groupie is really scary."

He Yao, the owner of the ice cream shop next door, received the news from Fengxuan, and immediately prepared ten ice creams and two glasses of drinks, packed them in a bag and brought them over.

He was also familiar with the owner of this restaurant, and after entering the door, he first greeted the owner, and then moved a box of ice cream drinks to the table where Feng Xuan waved to him.

The students happily shouted "It's finally here", each of them took a bowl of ice cream, and couldn't wait to taste the delicacy that Fengxuan was full of praise for.

While transferring money to He Yao, Feng Xuan asked, "Are there any new products this time?"

He Yao said: "Not yet, there will be a new product next month. Do you want to eat it? Remember to make an order first."

"Boss He's business is good." Feng Xuan patted He Yao's shoulder after transferring the account, "Save a copy for Qiao Mo and me when the time comes, thank you."

He Yao gestured "OK" to him, and took the empty bag back.

After the class reunion ended, a group of people left the restaurant and happened to run into Li Yang and Qiao Xi.

Li Yang came up to say hello to them. Some opera-loving classmates recognized Qiao Xi and shouted excitedly, "Qiao, Teacher Qiao Xi?" Both hands were about to be clasped, and they were swaying stiffly in the air, speaking incoherently. Confession, "I, I like your opera very much. Your opera last month, wow, that one is really amazing! Really! I, I am poor at words, I don't know how to say it, but it is really amazing! That depth!"

Qiao Xi smiled slightly and bent over, saying, "Thank you."

Li Yang asked him, "Did you study music?"

The classmate said, "No, no, I studied the Fa."

Li Yang said "Oh": "I study the Fa, and I also like opera. Shouldn't you practice it all the time?"

That classmate: "——Huh?"

Feng Xuan was dumbfounded: "Brother?"

After being stunned for a while, Qiao Xi and Qiao Mo couldn't help laughing.

The students said goodbye to each other, went back separately, and dispersed one after another.Only two or three are still standing here waiting for the bus, chatting.

Qiao Mo asked Qiao Xi, "Where are you going?"

Qiao Xi said, "I didn't go anywhere, I went for a drive."

Qiao Mo looked around behind them: "I didn't see you driving out either."

Qiao Xi said, "You can go for a ride on a bicycle, and I'm planning to drive one."

"Alright then, Fengxuan and I will leave first."

Li Yang waved to him: "Goodbye."

Feng Xuan said, "Brother, then I'm leaving."

Li Yang's good attitude disappeared in Fengxuan's place for a second: "Get lost."

Feng Xuan curled her lips aggrievedly, and Qiao Mo wrapped her arms around her neck and hugged her. The two of them just stuck together, stumbling towards the opposite side of the road.

The time after dinner is the time when He Yao's ice cream shop has the most customers.When people go shopping and have dinner, they like to come in and have some desserts, rest and chat when they pass by here.

There is currently no one in the store to help, and he is too busy alone.

A man in a camouflage military uniform pushed open the door and walked in. The sound of boots resounded on the floor of the store.

He stood in front of the sales counter, and the eyes of the customers in the store moved to the front of the sales counter as he moved.

He Yao was concentrating on making a cup of coffee. The new customer didn't bother to take a look. He just raised his hand and said apologetically, "My customer, please wait a moment."

The guest said, "OK."

He Yao's busy hands suddenly stopped as if time had frozen.Milk in the machine, constantly filling up the coffee mug.After He Yao stayed for a while, he hurriedly pressed the pause button on the machine.

He didn't lift his head.His gaze first stayed on the table, looking at the blurred shadow of the man in the reflection of the smooth table.

He pinched his fingers, his breathing became a little heavy, and his eyes seemed to be moist.Then slowly, he raised his head and looked at the guest in front of him.

Shang Yan shaved a short inch, and his skin, which used to be glowing white, is now a little tanned.Wearing this military uniform, he stood tall and straight, and he no longer had the childishness of the past.It's more manly.

He Yao only looked at it for a while, then lowered his head again, and swallowed hard.He said hoarsely, "You've grown up."

Shang Yan smiled and asked, "Is there any milk-flavored ice cream?"

He Yao put the prepared coffee and a piece of cake on the dinner plate.She curled her lips and answered him: "Yes. However, you cannot pay in euros."
