you are different from the picture

On the sixth day of the new year, the Conservatory of Music in S City held a small Spring Festival concert.

As a key member of the school band and a local student, Gu Yile participated in it without hesitation. City S has already started to warm up. This time the stage was set directly on the boulevard outside the college. The spring breeze was blowing and the music was wafting. Many surrounding residents came to watch. The scene was small but very lively.

Because it was a traditional festival, Gu Yile and Peng Zhou played "The Butterfly Lovers" together, and the neighbors loved it. It happened that just after Valentine's Day, some children bought flowers for them on the side of the road.

At the end of the show, Lu Xiaodi told them not to leave, saying that they had something to discuss, so Gu Yile and Peng Zhou went to the same cafe as last time to wait for her.

As soon as he sat down, Peng Zhou took out his stuff—a ball of wool and two bamboo needles, and started knitting a scarf.

A red flower that was nowhere to be placed was clipped to his ear. From Gu Yile's perspective, the person sitting in front of him seemed to be a hardworking and dexterous flower girl.

"This is too idle, starting to be self-sufficient?" Gu Yile asked.

"One more piece and we'll be finished." Peng Zhou didn't raise his head, "New Year's gift."

"For whom?"

"Jiang Yu."

Gu Yile understood that this was also a trick, Jiang Yu set up a beauty trick to chase him, and he set up a bitter trick to chase Jiang Yu.

People can't help complaining about what kind of pot and lid these two people really deserve, so let's get together as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble to others.

With distaste on his lips, his eyes couldn't help but keep staring at Peng Zhou's movements.

Unable to hold back, Gu Yile leaned forward, tapped his fingers on the table, and asked, "Hey, is this simple? Can it be finished in a few days?"

After Lu Xiaodi came to the coffee shop after work, what she saw was the warm picture of two boys knitting face to face.

It was the first time for Gu Yile to do this, her movements were jerky and her posture was awkward, the needle poked her hand a few times, and the small pieces woven were also tight and crooked, with no aesthetic feeling at all.

After hearing a few clicks, Lu Xiaodi took a picture of them: "Submit an article to our school's tree hole column."

The two parties had only one request, and they said in unison: "make me look handsome."

Lu Xiaodi kindly added several thick layers of filters. When he posted on the campus forum, before the photos were posted, he was first attracted by a new post.

"I'll go, this is too shameless." She scolded as she watched, "We haven't done anything yet, why should he beat us up first?"

When Gu Yile heard the senior sister's tone, he knew that it was not a good thing. He put down his work and went over to look at it. When the black and white story-telling description came into his eyes, his face turned livid instantly, and his clenched fists couldn't stop moving. trembling.

He really didn't want to meet that guy face to face, on the way back, he dialed the number Lu Xiaodi had inquired about.

After beeping three times, it was connected, and before Gu Yile reported his family name, the other end said with a smile: "I didn't expect Lele to take the initiative to call me. After living for a long time, you can see all kinds of strange things." .”

The sentence "Then why are you not dead?" almost blurted out, thinking that he was here to confirm the matter, Gu Yile gritted his teeth and calmed down: "Did you ask someone to post that post on the forum?"

"What post?" Tan Qian pretended to be stupid for a while, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, are you talking about the one in high school?"

"Yes, that's the one, isn't it you?"

"Of course not. This is a private matter between me and you. How could I post it in such a place for so many people to appreciate?"

"Impossible." Gu Yile didn't believe a word he said, "Who else but you?"

Tan Qian chuckled calmly on the other end of the phone: "Although I don't want to provide others with jokes after dinner, this incident was known to the whole school at the time. Now that we are in the same school again, it is reasonable for people to find out Among..."

Gu Yile couldn't listen anymore, and didn't want to play Tai Chi with him again: "Did you sneak attack me when the power went out at Senior Zhao's birthday party last time?"

"Sneak attack? What are you talking about?"

"Just touch, touch me." The unspeakable words made Gu Yile close his eyes, "I know you are also invited, I have seen it, and there are others at the scene. What do you want to do?"

The other side was quiet, and Gu Yile's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

He lied, thinking that this would make the other party fearful and reveal his flaws, but he underestimated how shameless this person was.

"See? How is it possible? You must have read it wrong." Tan Qian said confidently, "If you slander me out of thin air without evidence, I have the right to report to the Political and Educational Office and request that the rumormongers be punished."

The similar threatening words made Gu Yile instantly remember what happened in the past.

As if being strangled throat, breathing becomes difficult.Gu Yile's face was ashen, and she trembled her lips and said, "Tan Qian, are you still human? What do you want?"

"Student Gu, I don't understand what you said." Tan Qian said, "I just appreciate your talent, and I have a little friendship with you in high school, so I just want to help you."

"You think I'm going to hurt you? Lele, you really disappoint me. "

Not long after the call was hung up, Gu Yile received a text message from an unfamiliar number.

—You turned on the recording, didn't you?

I was in a daze, and two more came in.

——What do I think, don't you understand?

——As long as you obey me obediently, I will treat you as well as before.

After reading these hair-raising words, Gu Yile covered his mouth and rushed to the side of the road, leaning on the sidewalk tree and vomiting.

He didn't go home in the afternoon, so he found a bookstore to stay.

During the Spring Festival, there are many customers in the store, and it takes half an hour to order a cup of fruit tea.With a straw in his mouth, Gu Yile fingered with his left hand on the book spread out in front of him, then dozed off for a while, and when he woke up, his desire to talk was unprecedentedly strong, to the point where he couldn't vomit.

Thinking that Liang was in class at this time, Gu Yile went to the forum, clicked on the private message with A Dong, regardless of whether he was online or not, let's tell the story first.

Today Yihappy: I have a friend who realized he was gay when he was in high school, fearing that he would not be accepted by the people around him, no one dared to say so.He didn't even dare to get too close to others, thinking that he wouldn't be discovered that way.

Today Yihappy: Later, a boy in my friend’s class (hereinafter referred to as the dog boy) approached him and said that he wanted to be friends with him.He was a little scared at first, but the dog man treated him very well and said he could understand the lgbt community. My friend was moved by the dog man and felt that he was a trustworthy and good person.One day, my friend told the dog man his secret.

Speaking of this, Gu Yile put down the phone and took a break. When he picked up the phone again, he saw a new message.

Dong: The dog man told his secret?

Gu Yile was startled, and typed: Ah Dong, you are here[/wiping sweat]

Dong: Well, it’s okay, you can continue.

After all, it wasn't face-to-face. Text communication made the sense of security soar. Gu Yile took two deep breaths and continued typing.

today should be happy: Yes, he did make this secret public.But before that, he did something even more extreme.

Today should be happy: The dog man began to touch my friend excessively intentionally or unintentionally, physical contact, including touching his private parts through clothes.At first my friend thought it was the dog man's way of expressing friendship, until one day he was drunk by the dog man, and when he woke up, he found himself tied up and thrown in a strange room, and he didn't know that the dog man had other plans.

Today Yihappy: My friend escaped by luck that time.At first he was stupid, thinking that the dog man was the same kind, and he did it because he liked him.But who likes it like this, touching him frequently, hugging him, and even making more excessive demands, threatening and intimidating the other party's secrets, forcing the other party to do what you want.Dogman's family traditions are conservative, and his parents place high expectations on him, so he never shows his abnormal hobbies in front of people, including being gay.

Dong: But he was exposed in front of your friends.

today should be happy: So he has an almost perverted desire to control my friend, and he is already suspicious and sick. My friend has repeatedly promised not to tell him, so he is not at ease, and uses all means to seize the opportunity.For example, revealing my friend's secrets, and slandering my friend for pestering him in private, saying that my friend will do everything in order to fall in love with him, but in fact it is obviously him who is pressing every step of the way.

Today should be happy: Dog men are very popular, everyone believes his words, he forged a so-called love letter, and then fabricated a story about being entangled by homosexuals, and easily won everyone's sympathy.This is how he ruined my friend’s reputation, and he had nowhere to ask for help, and no one believed him anymore, so he could only obey him from now on.And it is difficult for my friend just to fight, let alone seize the evidence to bring him to justice.

Speaking of this, Gu Yile bowed his head on the table, face down, breathing heavily and rapidly.

After finally suppressing the feeling of vomiting that had come back, Gu Yile looked up and saw the message from A Dong. Gu Yile was taken aback for a moment, and then opened the corners of his mouth to reveal a slightly pale smile.

Dong: But your friend didn't give in.

Gu Yile asked: How do you know?

Dong: Guess.

Gu Yile couldn't help but roll his eyes at the familiar answer, and he felt relaxed after confiding.

Today Yihappy: Congratulations you guessed it right, he survived and is doing well now, not only no longer resisting love, but also made a very handsome boyfriend[/like]

Dong also responded with [/Like].

today should be happy: But his boyfriend doesn't know about it yet...he's afraid that his boyfriend will be angry[/poor]

When Gu Yile said this, he was actually asking for A Dong's opinion.He thought of Liang's New Year's resolution and felt guilty for keeping it secret.

He waited anxiously, and not long after, he received a reply from A Dong.

Dong: He only feels distressed.

But compared to making Liang angry, Gu Yile didn't want him to be sad.

So during the voiceover at night, Gu Yile, in accordance with the principle of fairness and openness, told Liang Dong this story in the form of "my friend", and made some beautifications on his own initiative, weakening the impact of this incident on "my friend" The blow and deep psychological shadow caused by it were also erased by the way.

"Although the dog boy failed to go to his favorite school, he was doing what he loved anyway. The disaster that was comparable to the locust crossing had less and less impact on him. Now he has many friends and lives a happy life every day. Very happy."

After Gu Yile finished his concluding statement, it took a long time before he heard Liang Dong say "hmm".

"You won't fall asleep again, will you?" Gu Yile raised the volume, "Wake up, the sun is drying your ass!"

A deafening roar successfully woke Liang Dong from his thoughts.

He turned his head to look at the gloomy weather outside the window and said, "There is no sun today."

"Isn't the sun out of city L all year round?" Gu Yile's thoughts jumped. He was still telling a story, but then he began to worry about the competition in April, "Where is it wet or dry? I'm afraid that my piano will not be acclimatized there. "

"Oceanic climate, slightly humid." Liang Dong flipped his phone, "If you are worried about humidity affecting the timbre of the piano, you can make preparations in advance according to the weather forecast."

Gu Yile smiled on the other side: "My boyfriend is over there, so I don't need a weather forecast."

Liang Dong was naturally happy to be relied on by Gu Yile like this. He created a new table casually, intending to record the weather changes in L City from today, and use it as a reference for Gu Yile at that time.

There was no class on Sunday, and the two of them chatted with each other through the audio, and made some other plans by the way.

"Is the clock tower really big?" Gu Yile asked.

"Big." Liang Dong replied.

"And the Isis River?"

"long."

"Are there many good things in the museum of country y?"

"Yes."

"Then do you know the Eye of City L? It's the Ferris wheel."

"Yes, by the river Isis."

"Ever sat?"

"No."

"Where's Westminster Abbey?"

"know."

"Can you go in and play the violin over there? I heard that Gothic churches are suitable for reverberation."

"I don't know, wait until I send an email to ask."

…………

When the inventory was almost done, Gu Yile let out a long sigh of relief and announced, "I will go to all of the above!"

Liang Dong replied in a deep voice, "Okay."

When he was about to fall asleep, Gu Yile yawned and asked in a daze, "If you were my friend's boyfriend, would you think he was stupid...would you be angry?"

He still wanted to know Liang Dong's reaction, so he asked at the most defenseless moment.

But Liang Dong knew everything, so it was hard to pretend to be indifferent.

"No." He could only answer in a way that would not scare Gu Yile, "I will hold his hand and take him to a place where there are no bad people."

Hearing this answer, Gu Yile stretched out his hand subconsciously, grabbed a cloud of air, closed his eyes and muttered: "Ah, what should I do, I want to find you now."

I think so too - Liang Dong said in his heart.

The thin lips were bent into a soft arc, and Liang Dong lowered his voice, letting it gently fall on Gu Yile's ears and dreams.

"Sleep, don't be afraid. When you wake up tomorrow, everything will be fine."

After all, the best way to get rid of a nightmare is to create more good memories to cover it.
