The Sun of Rebirth

At around 11:30, the performance was coming to an end, and the parents had basically left. Su Chaoyang, who was singing empty city tricks on his stomach, sneaked away from the back door stooping.

Running all the way to the door of his house, he suddenly saw the person standing outside his yard turning his head. Su Chaoyang narrowed his eyes, still smiling: "Chen Luo, you've come out too." What does it mean to stand outside his yard?

Chen Luo seemed to hear his voice, and answered without hesitation: "The persimmon tree in your family is growing well, please lend me to cut branches in spring."

"..." Su Chaoyang's eyes widened in surprise. Now the yard is covered with snow and barren. Except for plum blossoms, the other plants are withered and unrecognizable.Although the only persimmon tree is full of sweet fruits in autumn, it is still quite strange in winter.

"I like to eat persimmons the most." Chen Luo looked up at the bare fruit trees and said.

Su Chaoyang shuddered invisibly, not even knowing why.It is a common saying, but it seems to have heard exactly the same saying somewhere.

His gaze swept across Chen Luoyuan's face, and he retracted it uncontrollably before he could see the clue.Shaking his head and dismissing his thoughts, Su Chaoyang said haha: "Let's talk about spring, I have to go to work first." After saying that, he went straight to the Internet cafe.

Chen Luo stared at his back as he galloped away. Although he was tall, he showed the unique silhouette of a young man. No matter whether it was straight or bent, the reflection was deeply engraved in his eyes.

Wang Ran walked out of the school gate with the crowd and entered Su's house just in time for lunch.

"Today's dishes are so rich, I may have to eat three or four bowls." Wang Ran exaggeratedly licked his tongue, and couldn't wait to wash his hands and serve the meal.

Su Da enjoyed lunch with a full smile, "It's the first time I saw you making fish balls, when did you learn this skill?"

"I checked the information on the Internet, there are all kinds of recipes on the Internet, just follow it." How could it be so simple, even if the dishes he cooks are praised by his family, but he is indeed an amateur, and he learned from professional chefs Just to satisfy myself and my loved ones.Being praised for his talent, but accused of being lazy and impatient, Su Chaoyang honestly admits that he is not happy to be a cook. Cooking for thousands of people and cooking for his family are not the same concept at all. He can't do the former. Come, but the latter enjoys it happily.

"Chaoyang, your cooking skills are worse than many restaurants. It would be great if you were a girl to marry me." Wang Ran couldn't put it down for fish heads with chopped peppers. He prefers spicy dishes, but after eating in restaurants for a long time, he feels tired. Su Chaoyang usually makes them. Vegetarian dishes, although the taste is good, it is not as refreshing as this one.

"You're living and drinking at my house now. What's the difference between marrying me?"

"It's true, don't worry, I will give you a lot of my dowry." Wang Ran blinked, and the chopsticks couldn't bear to stop for a second.

"Tsk tsk, let Uncle Wang come and listen to this next time."

"Don't mention my dad, I'm probably too busy to go home this year, my mom will definitely make trouble."

Su Da and his son glanced at him and didn't say much.The couple had been feuding for many years.It's nothing more than one is too busy being a policeman, and the other can't get off the mahjong table.

"We still have to train Chaoyang in the afternoon, do you know?" Wang Ran took the initiative to change the subject.

"Yesterday, Lin Zhan notified that he will go to participate in the competition in the city next Saturday. I don't know how many places there are for the first grade."

"Tch, we're mostly just filling in the numbers. Lin Zhan might be selected, and that kid Song Chenxi might be able to make a sprint."

"The exam is coming at the end of the year, and there will still be sports competitions." Su Chaoyang shook his head uninterestedly, "I'll take a nap first."

Su Zhaoyang basically had no dreams during his afternoon nap, and was deeply sleepy. He was always woken up by the alarm clock. Today, he was unexpectedly woken up by the noise outside the house. He looked at the clock and it was only one o'clock at noon.

Sleepy-eyed, he walked to the balcony and took a look. The boys with loud voices outside were indeed those from his class. Wang Ran was smiling and didn't know what to say. Someone saw Su Chaoyang on the balcony and waved: "Su Chaoyang, excuse me Is your CD player in good use?"

Wang Ran encouraged: "Chaoyang, we have something good to share, ha ha."

"..." All of them had obscene smiles on their faces, and they couldn't hide their insignificance. They used their toes to figure out what they were going to share.

Su Da was not at home, so Su Chaoyang didn't think much about it. Even though the teenagers in front of him were not adults, they already knew what they should know. Watching a movie won't affect anything. Usually, the gossip in the back row will tell you that they are outside. There are more than one or two boys who have passed the female ticket.

"Be quieter." Su Chaoyang turned on the disc player, but Lin Zhan and Song Chenxi walked into the courtyard from the outside. Su Chaoyang immediately regretted it.

"I see that everyone is running to your house. Is there a party? Why don't you call us!" Song Chenxi happily rushed to the living room, and Lin Zhan followed. He saw a group of classmates gathered in front of the TV. He hadn't seen clearly yet The picture on the TV was the first to hear a strange sound.

Su Chaoyang turned around in embarrassment to pour tea, Lin Zhan was stunned, and stepped forward to look at the TV screen hesitantly.

Su Chaoyang was leaning against the kitchen door with a teacup in a daze. Apart from the faint mid-tones in the living room, a group of people were silent, almost eerily serious.

Lin Zhan watched the movie without any plot for a few minutes and found that it was all those scenes. He felt as if he was struck by lightning, shy, embarrassed, and bored for no reason.He lowered his eyelids not to look at the screen, took a deep breath and slowly raised his head to peek at the other students, and saw that these boys were almost... having fun.Unable to watch it any longer, Lin Zhan turned his head as if evading, and met Su Chaoyang who was by the kitchen door, startling him.

"..." Lin Zhan reluctantly said, "I'll go to school first."

When he was in junior high school, he found that the person he liked was different from others, but after all, he didn't really prove it. He was happy with Su Chaoyang, but they were as pure as snow, and he never dared to think of more.His limited knowledge and cognition did not allow him to think.No one would believe what he said, no matter the text or the video, this was the first time he saw those with his own eyes, and after being shocked, he had a deeper understanding of himself.He is a smart person, and when he was smart, he realized that his reactions were indeed different from those of his classmates.

Obviously I knew it a long time ago, but at this moment it still feels uncomfortable as if I was rejected by God. Where should I go in the future when I am different from others?Hesitation, confusion, one after another.

Even thinking of the peace and warmth when he was with Su Chaoyang couldn't dispel the strong self-loathing in his chest.

A group of teenagers laughed and made noise and left Su Chaoyang's house until two o'clock.

Su Chaoyang ordered Song Chenxi and Wang Ran to clean up the house before rushing to the playground.

Lin Zhan's face was expressionless, and he couldn't tell what was going on in his heart.

"The others warm up first, Song Chenxi, come here.

"What's wrong with the captain?"

Lin Zhan nodded: "Did Chen Luo tell you to ask for leave?"

"No, I didn't see him at the performance yesterday."

"Understood, you go to warm up. I'll give him a call."

Lin Zhan went to the side and dialed Chen Luo's mobile phone, but the phone showed that it was temporarily unavailable.Lin Zhan frowned and went to the arena and raised his voice: "Next week there will be a city-level high school campus track and field competition. The top players will be selected from the school. Although most of them are sophomores and seniors, there is also a chance for the first year of high school. Wait for the coach to come for a while." Publish the list."

Many players with excellent grades are ready to move. As freshmen in high school, they have participated in too few competitions so far, and some can't wait to show themselves.

Su Chaoyang has no enthusiasm for the competition, he followed the training honestly, and observed Lin Zhan without any trace. I don't know if it is an illusion. Today, Lin Zhan seems to be avoiding meeting his eyes, which was not the case before...

Could it be that the film at noon made him shy?

I can't figure out why and it's not good to ask directly.

At three o'clock, Teacher Xu hurried over to announce the list: "Lin Zhan's 100-meter sprint, Song Chenxi's 200-meter sprint, Xu Nan... Wang Zhichao... Su Chaoyang's 1500-meter long-distance race, Wang Ran, an alternate for the basketball team. Come with us to the No. [-] Middle School competition on Saturday. Well, we can leave school today."

Teacher Xu read the names of most of the people in one breath, and everyone was quite surprised.

"Wow, so many people have been selected? How many people are there in the second and third year of high school?"

"Only four people went to track and field in the third year of high school. The basketball team played alone. The second year of high school was similar to us. Most of them had already obtained the national second-level certificate, so they were not enthusiastic about the competition. Especially the third year of high school was hurrying to study and start the new year. I have to face the sports entrance exam, and I don’t want to cause extra problems, so the number of places for the first year of senior high school has increased a lot. This is an opportunity for you, everyone, come on. I have to leave beforehand.”

Mr. Xu came and went in a hurry. This kind of competition is big or small, and he is not obsessed with good or bad grades, as long as the students perform normally.

"Haha, even I have a share?" Wang Ran was very surprised, but he didn't reject it when he heard that it was a basketball team substitute. He was familiar with the only professional basketball team in Wutong High School. He often played basketball with them and went as a substitute. The game is not bad either.

Teacher Xu left, and everyone dispersed in a rush. Su Chaoyang waited until Lin Zhan walked out of the campus, and hurriedly waved: "Lin Zhan, do you have time to buy socks with me after the break tomorrow?" Tell me the reason for this nonsense It was all funny, so Su Chaoyang himself kept smiling.

Lin Zhan panicked, and hurriedly refused while riding a bicycle: "I'm sorry, I have something to do tomorrow."

"..." Su Chaoyang watched the other party's fleeing back, and sighed.

Lin Zhan rode his bicycle with an empty head, feeling remorse and sadness, and the ringing of his mobile phone broke his confusion.

"What do you want from me?" Chen Luo's cold voice made Lin Zhan shudder.

"You didn't come to the training and you didn't ask for leave. There will be a game in the city next Saturday, and Teacher Xu came to announce the list today.

"With me?" Chen Luo asked lightly.

"……No."

"Then it has nothing to do with me." Chen Luo smiled: "Captain, is Zhan Weiwei your cousin?"

Lin Zhan frowned: "Well, do you know her?" He was very cautious about the male classmates who inquired about his cousin. The cousin was too good, and there were too many boys who liked her.

"Almost, I was just a little surprised to find out that she is your cousin. I thought you were a couple before."

Lin Zhan was speechless.

Chen Luo hung up the phone, Lin Zhan thought for a while and couldn't help calling Zhan Weiwei, but the other party's cell phone was turned off, he thought about going to ask her and Chen Luo what happened in another day.

Su Chaoyang is busy with the upcoming sports competitions and final exams. He basically doesn't need to worry about business matters. After Su Da got started, he arranged everything properly. The Internet cafe doesn't need to expand, and the milk tea shop branch is still open. He already has experience Su Da has opened five branches in Wutong City in a row, and he will never be shocked by what Su Chaoyang said to open more than a dozen.He felt that it was far from enough, and he didn't even want to only open it in Wutong City.

Su Chaoyang supports all his father's sensible decisions, even if he loses money, it's not a pity, as long as Su Da is willing to do it seriously, he can support it unconditionally.

The day of the competition came quietly. On Friday night, Su Chaoyang finished his final training and walked home slowly in his sweaty clothes. Wang Ran followed behind him exhaustedly, not wanting to say a word.The others either went to the dormitory or went home. For tomorrow's game, today's evening self-study was cancelled.

He stopped at the door with his changed running shoes and looked back at the straight road on the campus. Lin Zhan pushed his bicycle out slowly. The slightly long hair on his forehead made his eyes dark. Lin Zhan had a lot of thoughts this week.Su Chaoyang saw it but couldn't do anything.

No one knew better than him that Lin Zhan was avoiding him.
