He thought it was time to leave, and he didn't tell Yuan Xu that he was coming. After landing, it was after noon, and he didn't have any luggage to check in. He walked out and took a taxi directly to Ningdu No. [-] Middle School.

The driver said while driving: "It's a bit far, young man, our airport is an hour's drive from the city, have you had dinner yet?"

"It's okay, you can drive." Xiang Zhiyuan yawned, "I'll sleep for a while, just call me when I'm almost here."

He didn't sleep much last night. He got up early this morning and ran to the airport to wait for the plane. He fell asleep on the plane for a while. He ate some not-so-tasty plane meals after eleven o'clock. Now he doesn't think about anything. Eat, just want to close your eyes and sleep for a while to rejuvenate your mind.

He fell asleep in the urban area after this sleep, and the taxi driver was almost there when he woke him up. Xiang Zhiyuan sat up and rubbed his face to wake himself up, and got out of the car after scanning the QR code to pay.He looked around on the side of the road, and found a roadside stall that looked delicious. He went to buy a burrito to eat, and then went to the shop next door to buy drinks on the recommendation of the boss.

"You drink their lemon tea, all the kids who go to school here like to drink that." The boss enthusiastically recommends hot products to him, as if he also opened the next door.

Xiang Zhiyuan hadn't experienced this kind of northerner's enthusiasm much, so he said yes with a smile, and went to a milk tea shop where no one was there with a burrito to order a cup of lemon tea. When he sat down to eat, he found that Ningdu could be seen from this angle. The signboard at the gate of No. [-] Middle School.

The shopkeeper in the milk tea shop was a young boy, and when he served the lemon tea, he asked him curiously: "You look like a stranger, are you looking for friends to play with?"

"Ah."

Xiang Zhiyuan poked open the drink and took a sip, the taste was okay, but it was not the same as Rongshi's lemon tea, a bit astringent.

"This is the best high school in our local area. Your friend should have good grades."

"That's good." Xiang Zhiyuan replied casually, thinking that even their Rongshi No. [-] Middle School enshrined Yuan Xu as a Buddha, and that this crappy school dared to show Yuan Xu its authority, it's really awesome, only in attitude.

During class time, the school gate is closed, and only the sound of lectures from the teaching building can be vaguely heard across the road.He finished eating the burritos, then sat down and drank lemon tea while replying a message to Yu Zishu, telling him that he had to go back at night, which was around midnight, and he couldn't go to Shangtan Street, but he could consider coming to the airport to pick him up after he finished his high. machine.

--Where have you been?Didn't you just finish the exam yesterday?

——Ningdu, do you want to eat grilled sausage? I'll bring you one home.

——Am I not sick, wait for you to fly four or five hours from Ningdu to come back to deliver the sausage?Why did you run so far? It's not snowing today.

Only then did Xiang Zhiyuan remember that Yu Zishu didn't know that he and Yuan Xu had a little love, and he was just waiting for someone to leave school for some time, so he called and had a good chat with Fa Xiao about his love story.

Yu Zishu has been working on his own art career for the past few months, and he hasn't come to harm him much. Occasionally, he called Zhiyuan and said that he was busy studying, thinking that he had changed his gender, but now it seems that he has not.

"Are you chasing your wife thousands of miles away?" He asked Xiang Zhiyuan.

"Yuan Xu is a man, so be careful what you say."

"Then you don't look like the one down there." Yu Zishu was innocent, "I know Yuan Xu, he is a pretty boy, but if he had known that you liked men, He Shaoqing would have chased you..."

Xiang Zhiyuan was a little confused: "Who is He Shaoqing?"

"It's the one we met at the gay bar before, the one in women's clothing, my classmate." Yu Zishu desperately reminded him, "Do you remember, it's the big guy in women's clothing, and we spent the night together."

"..." Xiang Zhiyuan said, "It's fine, there's no need to say any more."

In this way, he remembered that this classmate He Shaoqing was half a hero who enlightened his sexuality, but he no longer remembered what he looked like, and only had a little impression of him wearing women's clothing.

"He is my partner now, he still remembers you, come to play in my studio next time." Yu Zishu said.

Xiang Zhiyuan is a busy person now, and he doesn't come out to play after school every day. Don't bother him with his study at Shangtan Bar Street or Yu Zishu's studio.

Today was an exception, he came to Ningdu without actually thinking of doing anything, he just wanted to see why Yuan Xu was unhappy and whether he was having a bad time in Ningdu, that's all.

He came here on a whim, and after sitting in the milk tea shop in front of the school for two hours, his thoughts became more mature, and he still sent Yuan Xu a message.

——If you need something, tell me after school?

It was past four o'clock now, and he spent most of the time chatting and beating Yu Zishu, thinking that he would come and have dinner before leaving, and then searched for local delicacies on review websites, and found one near the school.After finally making it to this point, they figured that they should leave school at 05:30, but Yuan Xu replied, "I have to go for a run, and I guess I won't be free until after six o'clock. Is there anything urgent for you?"

Still running? ? ?

Xiang Zhiyuan had already seen some students slipping out of the school gate, so it was not necessary to run for exercise. He was a little irritable after waiting all afternoon, and he couldn't vent his anger on Yuan Xu, so he had to tell the other party honestly: "I'm at the school gate. Can you stop running, come out and have a meal with me."

Five minutes later, Yuan Xu stood in front of him, nearly dying of his anger.

"Calm down," Xiang Zhiyuan handed him a cup of freshly made lemon tea, knowing that it would be a bit annoying for him to come running without saying hello, so he coaxed him with a flattering tone, "You have the face to have dinner with me, later I will go back."

Before Yuan Xu had time to get angry, he didn't react when he heard the words: "Are you going to leave just now?"

"If you are willing to stay with me for one night, I can stay too." Xiang Zhiyuan said, "After all, the result of class placement will be released the day after tomorrow, so I can leave tomorrow."

This time he was surprised but not happy, Yuan Xu didn't think about how to arrange him, but he still went with him to eat the curry chicken that he had expected in advance.While eating, he kept staring at Xiang Zhiyuan, even a thick-skinned person like Xiang Zhiyuan couldn't stand it, half-jokingly said to him: "You have to keep watching, I feel like I might turn into a wolf .”

Yuan Xu was not scared away by him, he seemed to be thinking about something, but subconsciously found a place to look, and kept staring at him.When Xiang Zhiyuan put the divided chicken in his bowl, he suddenly came back to his senses and apologized for his distraction: "...I seemed to be in a daze just now, I didn't notice."

"You've been a little weird recently," Xiang Zhiyuan said, "If I didn't think something was wrong with you, I wouldn't have slept well all night, so I flew here early this morning to find you."

Yuan Xu was stunned: "Am I weird?"

"You're not abnormal, would I be so worried?" Xiang Zhiyuan asked him back.

He bluntly put the word "worry" on the table, obviously it was not such an intimate word, but it had a different meaning in Yuan Xu's ears.

Xiang Zhiyuan really came here out of worry, and also because of his sudden unfamiliarity and politeness, he finally got to this point, he had to figure out the reason for Yuan Xu's abnormality, and he didn't want to waste all his previous efforts.

"If something happens, you have to tell me." He softened his tone and discussed with Yuan Xu, "Although I may not be able to help you, I will always be your loyal listener, huh?"

Yuan Xu shook his head and said helplessly, "It's really not a big deal."

If I have to say something... In fact, it's not that there is nothing, but I simply don't think I need to complain to Xiang Zhiyuan.

His life in Ningdu No. [-] Middle School was not better than that in Rongshi No. [-] Middle School, because he transferred here halfway, and Ningdu is a small place. There are always one or two people in the school who know about his father, and it didn't take long for the whole school to spread the word. We all know.The teachers knew about it beforehand, but no one helped him. He became a new kind of transparent person in this school. After one semester, he did not make any friends as Xiang Zhiyuan predicted.

Recently, the classes were going to be divided, and the teachers seemed to suddenly think of him. The head teacher talked to him several times, and euphemistically expressed the meaning that he hoped that he would choose science—Ningdu No. [-] Middle School’s science is slightly better than the liberal arts. The grades of the students are not very good, so it is out of good intentions to persuade him, but Yuan Xu was already in a wave, so he didn't give the teacher a definite answer immediately.

He thought it was really just an ordinary conversation, but he found out yesterday that to the head teacher, his vacillating attitude seemed to be an unfriendly signal. The other party seemed to think that he was going to "surrender" to the liberal arts class, so Lose confidence and ignore him.

He had been a transparent person for a semester, and the only person he communicated with was the class monitor sitting at the front desk. The other party asked him if he was going to choose liberal arts, and said that the class teacher spoke ill of him to other teachers in the office, Yuan Xu realized. It seems like I shouldn't say that.

But this is obviously his own choice, the teacher in charge regards him as his future performance, and he didn't ask him in advance.

"... What kind of teacher is this? If you don't go to the science class, you can't add to his teaching career, right?" Xiang Zhiyuan was a little speechless, "This kind of person can get out of the teaching profession as soon as possible, how could he say you Bad words."

"So it's really not a big deal, but I was a little hesitant, wondering if I made the wrong choice." Yuan Xu said.

This "wrong choice" can be understood in many ways. Xiang Zhiyuan originally thought that he was the kind of person who would not regret it, but now he realizes that he seems to be wrong.

Yuan Xu would also feel lonely and helpless, would wonder if he had made a wrong choice, and would be a little vulnerable not to tell others.

Tell him now, and he has to take responsibility.
