life after death

The two looked at each other for a second, then looked away in embarrassment.

Boss Xie was very calm, looked at Su Junping, still smiling, and frowned after sweeping the red noodles on the table, patted him on the shoulder with concern and said: "When you grow up, why don't you eat something good? "

Su Junping felt guilty, nodded first, and then made some remedies and said: "The main thing is that I am at home alone, so I just ordered casually, and the usual food is okay."

Boss Xie: "Hurry up and eat noodles, don't mind the two of us, if you don't eat noodles, you'll be burnt."

Su Junping responded and bent down to get slippers for them. Chen Yilin saw that he was wearing a short woolen blouse, which could barely cover the belt. When he bent down, he revealed a slender and resilient waist.

Su Junping sat on his seat and ate two mouthfuls of noodles. Seeing the two of them staring at him, he was very sad, so he went to make a cup of tea for them, and grabbed a lot of snacks. Xie the boss said no, no, Su Junping insisted on giving it. , Only then did I feel my conscience regained a little bit, and I sat down and ate noodles.

Boss Xie praised Su Junping a few words while drinking tea, turned to the topic, but did not blame him, but simply explained the reason for bringing Chen Yilin here.

"I heard that you refused to come to school, and the students in the class were very worried. The class leader suggested to me that everyone write a sentence for you and make it into a booklet. I saw that he was so enthusiastic, so I asked him to come too. You guys Isn't the relationship between the two very good? They are at the same table again."

Su Junping slammed the chopsticks for the noodles, and looked at Chen Yilin's face through the oily light. Chen Yilin lowered his eyes to see the tea leaves in the glass floating up and down, and his face was slightly red.Su Junping knew that Boss Xie always liked to run trains, and always felt that this was not Chen Yilin's style, but there was another corner of his heart that was very happy, and he imagined a whole set of scenes of Chen Yilin busy in the classroom, and couldn't help smiling When he got up, Chen Yilin lowered his head even lower when he saw him staring at him stupidly drooling but not eating noodles.

After Boss Xie finished speaking, Chen Yilin began to pay attention to Su Junping's noodles again. Seeing the half-finger-thick red oil on the clear soup, which took half of the world's chili seed soy sauce, he said, "Don't eat too much spicy food. I ate spicy food every day for a while. If you go to the hospital for a physical examination, everything is high, you don’t feel it now when you are young, but you will know it later.”

Su Junping hurriedly said yes, and speeded up his chewing, wanting to eliminate the noodles earlier and break this embarrassing situation.

Chen Yilin glanced at the chili sauce, it was in a glass bottle, the side of the ingredient list was facing him, and there were two lines of small characters printed at the bottom:

2014.07.31

2015.09.30

Chen Yilin snatched Su Junping's chopsticks almost rudely. After snatching, he realized that he had acted too aggressively, and explained in a low voice: "It will expire at the end of September, so you can't eat it."

Su Junping: "..."

He got up and went to the kitchen to pour out the noodles, and quickly stuffed a few big mouthfuls where Chen Yilin couldn't see, then wiped his mouth and sat back like a dog.

As soon as he sat back, the purpose of this trip officially began.

Boss Xie was not in a hurry to persuade him to go back to school, but just said a few words about him, talking about his parents, about himself, and talking about how difficult it was for him to come to Zhejiang when he was originally from Guizhou: "See you in the teaching staff dormitory." Have you been there? It’s behind the tennis court. When I first came here, I lived here. There was nothing there. Of course, there was no kitchen. I installed a pot for cooking, but there was no range hood. A small electric fan, put your butt against the pot to let the oily smoke escape, and the people downstairs came up to complain."

The hulking-backed man drooped his eyelids, rarely showing a bit of vicissitudes of life.

"Later, I saved money, got married, and moved out. Maybe you still don't feel how important it is to study hard. Some time ago, at a class reunion, I didn't get good grades back then. Naturally, I don't do well now. They all It’s the big boss, the executives, everyone responds to everyone, and they come up and ask you what you’re doing and how much you’re getting paid for, how embarrassing it is for me to sit there... right.”

He talked and smiled, and said a few more words to drink up the tea. Su Junping was silent for a moment, then he stood up and said, "Stop talking, you can't let go if I'm here, I'll go out for a meal , let's talk first."

The two of them were startled, they obviously didn't expect him to have such an ulterior motive after being sensational, they didn't react for a while, Boss Xie slipped away with a vigor that didn't match his weight.

Su Junping pointed at the door for a while, then asked tremblingly: "He...he just left you and ran away?"

Chen Yilin adjusted his glasses uncomfortably: "My house is close to here. He asked me to bring my homework before coming here, and I will go home directly later."

Su Junping: "..."

It seems that it was not a temporary idea, but a long-planned plan.

With one less chattering agent, the embarrassment became more intense.

Chen Yilin was always on his nerves reminding himself of the nasty things he had done, and to stay away from Su Junping. Su Junping wanted to talk to Chen Yilin, but when he saw him drooping his eyelids and remembered that the two were still in a cold war, he was angry and didn't want to speak.

The two of them sat down the tea and did not speak, but in the end Su Junping couldn't hold back and spoke first.

"Have you eaten dinner yet?"

"have eaten."

"what did you eat?"

"Dishes from the cafeteria."

"Canteen, I haven't been to the canteen for a long time, how is the canteen recently, did you take care of the third year?"

Chen Yilin adhered to the principle of "every word is worth a thousand dollars", and kept it simple if he could. It's even better now that he just shook his head and didn't even say a word.

Su Junping twitched the corner of his mouth, angry in his heart, and asked Chen Yilin for the "booklet full of blessings from the whole class" and flipped through it silently.Most of them are well-behaved, and Wang Wenjie and his ilk just hurt each other. He scolded a few times and went to Chen Yilin to write.

Chen Yilin is also a blessing, but it is different from the stereotyped "academic success". What he wrote is:

willing:

Good health.Nothing to worry about.

Su Junping almost thought for a moment that he knew about Yang Hong, but he clearly didn't know, it was just the most sincere and simple wish in his heart.

If nothing happened, maybe he would still feel strange, but he was stripped of all false and beautiful faces by the reality, and he suddenly found that the most difficult thing in this world is these eight words: healthy body, free mind hang.Su Junping thought of tossing and turning or waking up sweating profusely from nightmares at night, staring blankly at the pitch-black ceiling, the curtains were drawn tightly, the door was tightly closed, time was almost sticky Without moving, he seemed to be abandoned by the world, standing outside the river of time and watching everyone's birth, old age, sickness and death.

Loneliness came out from the bottom of my heart.

He has never talked to anyone, not before, not now, and certainly not in the future, but at that moment he burst out with the desire to talk to Chen Yilin, no matter the good or the bad, as soon as the words came to his lips The moment he gritted his teeth and swallowed it back abruptly, his teeth were sore.

At that moment, all the resentment towards Chen Yilin in his heart disappeared.

It's really strange, this is clearly a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, if it was another time, he would definitely not be like this, but it happened to be this time, this person, it seemed that two irrelevant streams suddenly converged in one place, and there was sweetness in his heart The joy of the fountain.

Su Junping chewed Chen Yilin's name deeply, and was about to open his mouth to call him, when he heard a grunt. Before Su Junping could react, he saw Chen Yilin blushing from his face to the back of his ears.

Su Junping suppressed a smile and asked: "Are you honest, did you not eat dinner?"

Chen Yilin was not very good at lying, so he nodded after hesitating for a long time.

"Why don't you eat? You still say so confidently that I don't eat well. You didn't eat at all."

Chen Yilin thought that I didn't say that, but he was kind-hearted and used to not saying it, but shrank his head into his neck apologetically.

Su Junping stood up: "I'll cook some more noodles. I'm starving to death. You told me that it's overdue after a few mouthfuls. You should wait until I finish eating."

He opened the refrigerator and found a few green vegetables with great difficulty, and found a pack of vacuum-packed scallops in the freezer. He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook a pot of scallop noodles.Su Junping loves to eat, and has some cooking skills, but most of the time he is too lazy to pass by. He put on a hellokitty pink apron, and gave Chen Yilin a vicious look: "Don't laugh!"

Chen Yilin wanted to come to the kitchen to help, but he stared back, and he was busy in the kitchen in an orderly manner.

Soak the dried scallops first.

They took advantage of this time to finish off a bag of potato chips, and when the scallops softened, Su Junping poured the soup to prepare noodles. The water in the iron pan was rolling, one after another, and Su Junping was counting the fish-eye bubbles. There was a stabbing pain in his lower abdomen. He hissed and tried to get over it, but found that the abdominal pain was getting worse—the effect of the chili sauce was too immediate!Su Junping had no choice but to hand over the kitchen to Chen Yilin, and went to the toilet by himself.

When he finished washing his hands and opened the door, Chen Yilin was loading dishes.He didn't think much about grabbing his shoulders, Chen Yilin shook violently, tilted the bowl and almost spilled the soup.

Su Junping pretended not to know that he took half a step closer, and found that his shoulders were as hard as a rock, and the joy in his heart slowly sank.

Su Junping lowered his eyes and lowered his voice: "A Lin, why are you avoiding me?"

Chen Yilin made a loud noise when he put the bowl on the cooking table.

"do you hate me?"

Chen Yilin's heart twitched uncontrollably, and the pain came out a little bit. He wanted to turn around and hug him. He wanted to bury his head in his shoulder and smell the faint fragrance of his body, but Chen Yilin just wanted to, without even lifting his fingers. , just shook his head and said, "How could that be."

"Then why do you avoid me like this? Luo Qingyu... I don't mind, really, I really don't lie to you, I'm not angry with you at all, or are you angry with me? I... I'm not good , I didn't mean to hit you, I apologize, forgive me, please?"

Su Junping pulled Chen Yilin's sleeve pitifully. Chen Yilin looked at the bowl of noodles in clear soup and was silent for a while before saying, "You have nothing wrong with you, let alone forgive or not. I'm just... tired, you know Is it? It’s that kind of indescribable, clear-headed but tired feeling..."

Su Junping called him cautiously: "A Lin..."

Chen Yilin grabbed his hand and couldn't help rubbing it with his fingertips: "Give me some time, let me rest for a while? Maybe it will be much better after a while." Su Junping was still a little hesitant, and Chen Yilin's eyes suddenly dimmed. Come down, "Please."

Only he himself knew the dirty things he did, the more magnanimously Su Junping forgave him, the more bitter he was about himself.Su Junping is too good, but he is not worthy.

Su Junping looked into his eyes and didn't know what to say for a while.There was a great fear of ignorance in his heart.

At this moment, he heard Chen Yilin say, "Come to school tomorrow?"

Su Junping looked into his lonely eyes, and nodded in a strange way.
