Chapter 28 Section 4

It was a long time after he left that someone responded and asked, "Where's Elliott?" Everyone shook their heads, wondering where he had gone, "Maybe in the locker room." "Probably in the shower! Elliott has a slight cleanliness and can't tolerate sweat." The smell, every time after playing tennis, you have to take a shower and change clothes immediately." Helen was ordered by Lu Licheng to take care of a slightly sprained colleague just now, and she didn't pay attention, so facing everyone's inquiries at this time, she could only shake her head, "It should be taking a shower!"

I opened my mouth, but closed it again. After the game, everyone left one after another. There were fewer and fewer people in the stadium. Only our department and some colleagues who had a good relationship with Peter were still there. Peter was a night owl and clamored to celebrate. Karen showed him his watch, but he didn’t bother Said: "It's only eleven o'clock, and the nightlife has just begun." Song Yi packed up his clothes and said, "Go and play recklessly, I'll pay for it." Everyone cheered, "What about you?" Song Yi glanced at the few ladies who dawdled by the side of the arena, "I'm going, how do you play? I'm an old man, I'd better be conscious and go home to sleep."

Peter and the others laughed, and knew that what Song Yi said was true. After all, he was the boss. People from one of our departments got to know him well and knew that he was careless, but people from other departments would not think so, so, Peter A group of them all "abandoned" Song Yi to start the night life they just started. Sandy's boyfriend came to pick her up. Karen and I discussed taking a taxi home together. Song Yi heard this and said with a smile, "Adding me will ensure your safety even more." We all know that he hasn't bought a car since he returned to China. At this time, someone offered to pay the bill, and Karen immediately agreed.

It’s the same for Karen and I to send off first, and it’s inevitable to go back. She and I humbly said to send each other first. Karen is really polite, but I am full of selfishness, so the motivation of the two is completely different. , seeing that I was about to win, Song Yi made the decision for us, "Give Armanda first!" My heart tightened, and I looked at him from the corner of my eye, he smiled as usual, nothing unusual.In the lingering disappointment, I can only be relieved.The concubine has a heart, but the man has no intention. I can't blame others for being confused. After all, Karen is his personal assistant, and he is half of his own. This is how he treats guests.

Rationality is rationality, but the mood is a depression that cannot be dispatched. He treats me like a guest! After getting out of the car and saying goodbye to them politely, the first thing I did was to call Malatang, "I'm very annoying and I need a drink." "Grandma, I'm at my parents' house now and I can't get out." Malatang's voice was very low. I had no choice but to hang up the phone. I wanted to go upstairs, but it was always uncomfortable. I simply ran back to the intersection, called a taxi, and rushed to a bar near my home alone. This bar is not a famous bar, and the location is not good, so even though it is a weekend, there are not many people.However, I happen to like its quietness and proximity to home, so I often drink and chat with Malatang here.

As soon as we entered the door, we found that there was already someone in the seat we used to sit, and it was an acquaintance.Lu Licheng still wore the jersey, but he added a windproof jacket on the outside. His behavior at this time obviously did not conform to the behavior of a person with a slight cleanliness. He listened to the low singing of the guitarist and poured himself a drink.In this small bar where no one knew him, he finally released a little bit of his inner emotions, there was no sharpness between his brows, only loneliness, and suppressed pain.Such a strong pain, it seems that if he is not suppressed well, if he is not careful, he will completely collapse.

I thought about it, walked to the side of the bar and asked the boss for a beer. When paying the bill, I greeted the boss in a low voice, "Help me keep an eye on that person. If he is drunk, he must not drive away by himself. Help him." Call a taxi." The boss readily agreed. I quietly left the bar, took a beer, and drank it while walking. The cold wind and cold beer made people feel cold from head to toe. Song Yi, he is like shrouded in a cloud of fog. His politeness and friendliness make everyone think that he is easy to get close to, but he uses his politeness and friendliness to keep a distance that is neither too far nor too close to everyone. distance.I tried my best to approach him, but every time I thought I had succeeded, he always easily pushed me back.

He is not him.Back then, the smile on the corners of his lips was never a mask to keep distance, and the depths of his eyes were not so dark that he couldn't see clearly.But he is still him. Tonight, on the basketball court, he is exactly the same as he was many years ago, and the brightness in his eyes is just like the boy who smiled brightly in the sun back then. But I'm not the same person I was then, and I never had the guts to do everything I did tonight.But I am still me, I still love him, only more than before, not less than before. Half an hour later, I opened the door and threw the empty beer bottle in the trash.Turning on the computer casually, Song Yi's profile picture was beating.

"Are you at home?" "Are you there?" "Are you here?" "If online, please contact me." There are four messages in a row, although each sentence is very ordinary, but together, it makes people feel that the person who sent the message is very anxious that I am not online. I hurriedly sat down, "Excuse me, I just got home, what's the matter?" "It's all right. It's late." "There was an event in the evening. After the event, I went to the bar to drink some wine." "one person?" "one person."

"Happy wine, unhappy wine?" I thought about it seriously before replying, "I am both happy and unhappy. The happy thing is that no matter what he or I look like, I still love him. The unhappy thing is that no matter what he or I look like, he still loves him." not love me." After a while, his message arrived, "Why don't you give up on him? Where there is no grass in the world, there must be Lanzhi within three steps." Why not give up?I braced my chin, thinking of the rain and sunshine that day... Song Yi has always been the prince in the school, because he studies well, looks good, and plays basketball well. There are many girls who pay attention to him, but few really dare to like him. After all, he is a student of a key high school, and his IQ They are not low, and everyone's minds are also precocious. They abandoned Qiongyao early in the morning and watched Yishu. Based on the principle of loving handsome guys more than themselves, few people are willing to be silly moths in romance novels, so Song Yi, The girls tacitly maintained an attitude of watching from afar, but never getting close.I am also one of these girls, we will talk about Song Yi in the dormitory meeting, we will skip class to watch Song Yi play basketball, and when Song Yi passes by our classroom, we will stick our heads on the glass window to peek, Playing the nympho role of a manga girl, but none of us would imagine what it would be like for Song Yi to be her boyfriend.

If it has been like this, my life trajectory may not be what it is today. According to my grades, I will go to an ordinary key undergraduate course, maybe I will meet a boy, and then we will fall in love on campus.Many years later, I may think of Song Yi when I lament the youthful years, but his specific appearance must have been blurred.However, everything took a completely different path on a rainy day when I was seventeen. At that time, Song Yi had already graduated from high school and was admitted to Tsinghua University. Maybe it was an invitation from a friend, or maybe he missed his old school. On a summer afternoon with light rain, he played basketball with a few friends on the basketball court.Song Yi has always been playing basketball, and there must be crowds of spectators, but this time because it is summer vacation, there is no one in the school, only they are running and cheering on the basketball court. I have forgotten why I went to school that day, anyway, I went, and I heard their cheers, so I followed the cheers and walked to the basketball court.When I was approaching, I hesitated, standing in the birch forest and not daring to take another step. At that time, the sun broke through the clouds, and the rain was half off. In the drizzle, the sunlight was light and thin, and the leaves of the birch forest were as green as drops. Blow out wisps of grass and trees. The whole world is fresh, bright, and bright, and they, the group of youths in their primes, are the most touching strokes in this picture. Everyone's clothes were soaked, and their faces couldn't tell whether it was sweat or rain. When they ran, they often brought a series of water droplets, which were reflected by the sun, and there were colorful rays of light between the changes of light and shadow.Coupled with tight and shapely muscles, bright and pure eyes, a tall and vigorous figure, full of powerful pursuit and confrontation, I realized the meaning of the four words "masculine beauty" for the first time. The men in front of me are really all They are all walking like a dragon and a tiger. Afraid of destroying the picture in front of him, he didn't dare to move, so he could only stand under the tree and watch quietly.At that time, I didn't think that my eyes would fall more on Song Yi. In my eyes, each of them was the beauty of sports, sunshine, and youth. In the distance, a man came limping, and everyone on the playground stopped, and someone scolded, "Look at your watch, what time is it?" Someone asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Withered?" Someone came to the side of the playground and said: "I can't fight today, you continue to fight!" Everyone gathered around him, cursing and asking, "Da Zhu, you fart as soon as you can!" "Da Zhu, what happened to your leg? Where did the injury on your face come from?" After being questioned by everyone, they finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that Da Zhu's girlfriend was pursued by a gangster. The gangster warned him several times, but he ignored it.Today the gangster finally resorted to violence, four people blocked him in the alley near the school and beat him up. After everyone listened, there was nothing to do but to persuade him to be more careful in the future, Da Zhu held his head and said nothing.Unexpectedly, Song Yi, who has the gentlest personality, smashed the basketball in his hand to the ground, and the basketball bounced high and flew far away. "Too much bullying! Let's go! This place must be found today!" Da Zhu held his head and said dumbly, "They have knives in their hands." Song Yi raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly with disdain, "It's a big deal to lick blood!" Everyone stared at him blankly, Song Yi looked at him with a cold face, "what's there to be afraid of, we are more people or they are more people? When we usually drink, we don't say anything to hurt our buddies." Did it count? And you, Da Zhu, you can’t even protect your own woman, what are you doing? You have the strength to hold your head and cry, but you don’t dare to go out and fight?” They were all hot-blooded young men, excited by Song Yi's words, everyone became anxious and shouted in unison: "Who is afraid?" Da Zhu jumped up, "Let's go!" Da Zhu took the lead to lead the way, and a group of people rushed out of the school impassionedly like soldiers rushing to the front line. In the birch forest, I stooped to pick up the basketball that rolled to my feet, but lost a girl's heart.Maybe every girl yearns for a hero, longs for a pair of arms to protect herself, and hopes for a man who can get angry at the crown and draw his sword to become a beauty.The appearance of Song Yi at that moment made me feel the feelings of a man. In my eyes, he is no longer just a boy with good character and learning, but a man who is responsible and does what he does. I am holding a basketball, standing in the birch forest, the world is so quiet, as if it has stopped turning, only my heart is beating so fast, I already faintly understand that from today, my world will not be the same as before , There are secret joys and sorrows. When they came back, many people lost their lottery, but all of them looked happy, draped each other's shoulders, and sang loud military songs, which resounded through the playground.They are like a group of warriors returning from victory. Song Yi is surrounded by them in the middle. One of his eyes is black and blue, half of his face is red and swollen, and there are bloodstains around his lips. His image is really not good, but he is the most handsome in my memory. moment. They were looking for the ball around, laughing loudly, discussing who was the hero, who was the bear, who was usually the coolest, but who was the coward just now, and finally agreed that Song Yi is "the dog who can't bark is the best." will bite." I walked up to Song Yi, and said to him who was bent over looking for a ball in the grass: "Is this your basketball?" He looked up, "Yes! Thank you, thank you!" The moment he raised his head, the sun just broke free from the dark clouds, and the light suddenly brightened, but his smile was brighter than the sun. I handed the ball to him silently, and he held the ball and asked, "Are you studying here?" I nodded, "September will be the second year of high school," "Xiaoxiaomei, thank you!" He smiled and turned to leave. My heart was bulging, and I couldn't tell whether it was sweet or bitter. With the sensitivity and low self-esteem unique to girls, I seemed to be very rational and calm and said: "My grades are not good, I can't get into Tsinghua University, and I can't afford to be an elementary school girl." call." He stopped in his tracks and turned to look at me, with a lot of disapproval in his eyes, "You still have two years, it's too early to set yourself up to lose now! As long as you think about it, you can do it! Study hard, I'm here Tsinghua is waiting for you." He smiled at me, his confident smile was shining on me like a little bit of sunshine. He waved to me and strode towards the court, "I found the basketball!" Everyone cheered loudly when they saw the basketball in his hand, and quickly gathered to the basketball court from all directions. They started playing basketball again, and while they were jumping and running wantonly, their youth was flying vigorously and burning in the sun. For the first time, I felt that I could be so confident and soaring, that is the true nature of youth! I clenched my fists tightly, stared at his figure, and heard his voice over and over again, "I'm waiting for you at Tsinghua University." How many nights, when everyone in the dormitory was already asleep, I read the book under the light of the bathroom door; how many mornings, when everyone was still dreaming, I held the English textbook and memorized each word.I also worked hard for a semester, but my math grades were still not good. I also did countless sets of chemistry problems, but my chemistry didn't advance but retreated.It's not that there are no moments when you are tired, slack, frustrated and want to give up, but every time you feel that you are stupid than others and want to give up, you will always think of the disapproval between his brows, his smile, and those little bits and pieces that fall into your heart. Sunshine, so, always hugging the exam papers, hiding in bed and crying a lot, clenched his fists, and set off again. can i give him upI typed on the keyboard, "Abandoning him is like giving up all my dreams and courage, never!" A line of words soon appeared on the screen, "The sea can be turned into a mulberry field. Nothing in the world can last forever, including your love." I don't like such a dignified conversation atmosphere, so I jokingly said to him: "There must be Lanzhi within three steps, if you are willing to be this Lanzhi, I will consider giving up him, how about it?" After sending out the words, I began to regret my recklessness, But it's too late to regret. "?, I'm a rotten piece of wood, but I know a lot of Lanzhi, and I can introduce it to you at any time." I sighed lightly, "Thank you, thank you! Save some of your Lanzhi for me, and when my mother forces me to marry with a knife, I will come to you." As in the previous days, the two chatted endlessly but happily, and then said good night to each other and went to sleep. In my dream, I dreamed of the campus of Tsinghua University. He was playing basketball. At the age of nineteen, I stood nervously and shyly by the side of the basketball court. When everyone chanted "Song Yi, Song Yi", I timidly bit my lip , finally, I also shouted out, "Song Yi, Song Yi..." He turned his head brightly, and in that look, I was there!
