memory correction

At the end of the show, it was almost time to catch the last bus. As soon as Lin Xiao swiped his card, the driver let go of the brake and stepped on the accelerator. The car started, and Lin Xiao staggered unexpectedly. Han Chengyue quickly grabbed his hand and helped him .

"Thank you."

Han Chengyue still held his wrist, "Aren't you going to work tomorrow, Friday, and go back to your own home?"

"I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, to the capital of a neighboring province, not to the company."

"What time is the high-speed train?"

Lin Xiao hesitated for a while, then said, "A little bit."

Han Chengyue let go of his hand, took out his mobile phone, logged on to the railway 12306, and inquired about the ticket. There was no train between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-]. He turned the screen of his mobile phone to Lin Xiao, "Did you remember? I'm going on a business trip tomorrow morning, and I haven't got it yet." Clear the time, can't you?"

Lin Xiao was a little embarrassed.

A lie needs countless lies to cover up the situation, even if it is a white lie.

Han Chengyue simply pointed out, "I went to see it, and you stayed there for a few nights at the beginning of the year, right?"

Lin Xiao clenched his fists, his thumb nails were deeply embedded, Han Chengyue pretended not to notice, and continued, "Why did you rent that old house?"

Lin Xiao smiled dryly, "It was winter at the beginning of the year, it was cold and dark, it was too difficult to get up early, but now the weather is hot and the light is early, it is more convenient to live at home, and I have to cook by myself when I live alone."

Still making up, playing sloppy with himself, Han Chengyue lost interest in asking the bottom line and stopped talking.

When getting out of the car, Lin Xiao suddenly said, "Do you want to hear me tell the truth?"

Han Chengyue stopped and turned around.

The bus had already driven away and disappeared into the night.Lin Xiao glanced at him with a complicated expression, then looked away, and stopped looking at him, "I want you to relax and be free. You don't have to work so many part-time jobs, and you can do everything by yourself."

"Because of guilt?"

"I regret all the time that I recommended my uncles and aunts to Haining Island. In order to let myself breathe and feel better, I can stay away from you, and maybe I will let it go someday."

that is because?

Lin Xiao turned his back, his thin shoulders and voice trembling, "Because I like it, my heart aches and I want to treat you well."

Han Chengyue's mind was in a state of turmoil.

Lin Xiao laughed at himself and said, "I didn't intend to stop you. I did it for so many days, but I couldn't hold back today. You don't have to be burdened. Tomorrow, no, forget it now, pretend I didn't say it."

Han Chengyue was a little displeased, and pretended to be angry, "It's just a confession and it's not counting, isn't it too skinny?"

Lin Xiao turned around abruptly. It wasn't raining, but his eye sockets were wet. It was the same as when we met in the cemetery before. The water was bright and fragile. "Don't you hate it?"

"I used to hate you very much. I always wished that if it wasn't for you, my mother and Uncle Liu wouldn't be in an air crash, even half a year ago..."

Lin Xiao's expression gradually turned gray, and Han Chengyue put his hands on his shoulders, "Listen to me, I regret it very much now, I hate my childishness and irrationality. I thought I would never mistake you and Qin Yu, But actually I was wrong more than once."

Lin Xiao was stunned, Han Chengyue paused, and asked in a firm tone: "On the day I moved, I met you in the elevator, right?"

"On the day of the opening ceremony, it was you who replaced Qin Yao who spoke on stage, right?"

"On the last day of military training, you were the one who gave me mineral water?"

"During military training, you sang "You Were a Boy" on the playground, and you changed the lyrics yourself just like tonight..." Han Chengyue put down his hands, "Can you hum a few more words?"

Lin Xiao sang a few words uncomfortably, and Han Chengyue said seriously: "During the military training, I was very annoyed because my mother was going to remarry, but after hearing your singing, I felt a lot more relaxed for some reason, and my heartbeat still Soon, now also, if you don’t believe me, listen.”

Lin Xiao opened his eyes wide unexpectedly, fell silent for a moment, and muttered softly, "I can't hear you."

"That's closer." Han Chengyue took a step forward, opened his arms, and hugged him.

It was late, and occasionally pedestrians passed by on the road, casting strange glances.Han Chengyue didn't care at all, he was thinking about every little thing after meeting Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao's forbearance and devotion, but he didn't do anything for Lin Xiao, just saying that he likes it, it seems cheap, Han Chengyue tightened his arms and felt his arms hard The body temperature of the person ironing the post.

Han Chengyue made up his mind and transferred the "rent" to Lin Xiao without any loss, "Don't transfer it to me again."

Lin Xiao scratched the tip of his nose, "I'll tidy up my things this weekend and return the key to you."

Han Chengyue waved his hand, "Don't worry about it, sometimes you work overtime, it might be convenient to live there, anyway, you keep the key."

Lin Xiao wanted to say something else, but Han Chengyue stretched out his right index finger to signal him to stop arguing.

Liu Man's college entrance examination results came out, and her Chinese score was more than ten points lower than she expected. The final total score was only one point higher than Liancheng University's score line last year. Therefore, when filling out the application form, she ticked the option of accepting a transfer.

Seeing that the admission notice stated that she majored in business administration instead of computer science, Liu Man felt a little regretful, but not surprised. She planned to change majors. Lin Xiao gave her the textbooks and notes from her college days. During her summer vacation, she specialized in "Data Structure" 》, under the guidance of Lin Xiao, I have been able to use DevC++ to write simple programs such as guessing games.

"Although this statement is correct, it is redundant. You can delete it by changing it here."

Liu Man said "ah", "That's right."

"Just started to learn programming, write a program, after the test is correct, you can think about whether you can write the code more concisely, and solve it with one statement, never two. It may not be obvious now, When writing complex programs in the future, the concise writing method has lower requirements on hardware and runs faster."

"It's time to eat." Han Chengyue knocked on the door.

It was dinner to celebrate Liu Man's successful college entrance examination, but when Han Chengyue went to the supermarket to buy groceries, he specially bought Lin Xiao's favorite.

Liu Man looked at most of the vegetarian dishes on the table with a pale face, "Sure enough, I still have to learn cooking. In the future, I will decide what I eat."

Han Chengyue had no objection, "Chef Liu, tomorrow's lunch will be left to you."

Liu Man quickly waved her hands, "Forget it, I'm afraid your stomach won't be able to handle my dark food."

Lin Xiao helped clean up the dishes and left.The weather was hot, and Han Chengyue was about to wash his face with cold water, when Liu Man suddenly said: "I made a vow before that I would get out of the singles as soon as I can go to college, I am afraid that I will renege on my promise and get fat."

Han Chengyue turned off the faucet, and planned to choose an appropriate time to reveal it. Now that it has been seen through, there is no need to hide it anymore, "We were together not long ago." Han Chengyue observed her reaction, and continued: "You are not at all. Accident? I thought that even if you were aware of it, you would still be a little shocked or..."

Liu Man interrupted him: "Or what? If I were a boy, if I met him, I'm afraid it would be hard not to like him, he's so nice."

So good that he felt ashamed.Obviously before, I still didn't think "he is the best person I've ever met".

"Probably if you are successful in the examination room, you will inevitably be frustrated in love." Liu Man looked away, "It's better to be cheaper than other girls, but at any rate... Uh, what do I call him now? What are you guys..." Liu Man voted With gossip eyes, Han Chengyue's back felt cold, feeling that she was thinking about something inappropriate for children.

"up and down……"

Sure enough, Han Chengyue had a dull face, expressionless.

Liu Man thought he didn't understand, so he simply said, "Which one of you goes up and who goes down?"

Han Chengyue almost choked on his own saliva, "Don't mind your own business, girls are not ashamed."

Liu Man rolled his eyes, "You guys don't know how to talk about platonic love, do you?"

Han Chengyue made a decisive decision and kicked him out.

Lin Xiao seems to go back to Shilong Community often recently, and Han Chengyue occasionally goes there, and meets each time.

"Don't you think it's inconvenient to live here and cook by yourself?"

Seeing that he was carrying two bags of fresh meat and vegetables, Lin Xiao decisively canceled the unpaid takeaway order, "I'll wash the vegetables, and the meat will be handed over to you."

After the meal, the two of them nestled on the sofa and watched a movie. The first movie was very boring, but the second one started off dull, and gradually got better as the plot slowly progressed.

Han Chengyue, who has never been interested in movies, watched them with gusto and didn't pay attention to the time. After watching it, he realized that it was already late.

"Why don't you tell your sister to sleep here tonight? There are new toothbrushes and towels."

Han Chengyue nodded without thinking.

After Han Chengyue washed up and was about to go to the guest room, Lin Xiao called him to stop: "The quilts and mats in the guest room haven't been dried."

The 1.5-meter bed in the master bedroom is really not that wide. The two of them are lying side by side without touching each other, yet they can feel the body temperature and breath intertwined with each other.

Han Chengyue closed his eyes and counted sheep in his heart. The more he counted, the more excited he became. When he counted to one hundred and one, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked at the ceiling for a long time, turned over cautiously, and was about to close his eyes when he heard Lin Xiao's sober voice came: "Can't you sleep?"

Next, I don't know who will approach whom first.Perhaps, they stretched out their hands at the same time, boldly and recklessly touching each other's fast pulse and hot skin in the dark.

Kissing purely on instinct and unstructured love easily arouses sexual desire and burns away the remaining rationality.All the thin clothes were peeled off, and the bodies of the first and the last were tightly pressed together without any gaps.

When Han Chengyue woke up, Lin Xiao's shirt was halfway through, and he couldn't see it clearly last night. At this moment, the morning light shone into the room through the frosted glass, and the hickey marks and handprints all over his shoulder blades and waist were particularly obvious, and they were also very erotic.

Did you toss too hard?

Lin Xiaoruo turned his head with feeling, met his worried eyes, and smiled relaxedly: "Morning."

"Morning." Han Chengyue sat up, "Wait for me, I'll put on some clothes and send you to work."

Lin Xiao's ears turned red, and he quickly looked away.It was only then that Han Chengyue realized that his words were strange, "Ah!" Han Chengyue looked down.

It seems to be quite exaggerated.

Qin Yao and He Qingyi got married at the end of August. When Han Chengyue received the invitation, his mouth was so wide open that he could lay down an egg, "You guys decided so soon?"

"Well, we have known each other for many years, and we have liked each other for quite a long time." When Qin Yao said this, he smiled contentedly, "Both parents thought there was no problem, so they chose a date."

He Qingyi may have told him the secret that he kept to himself at the beginning.

Han Chengyue suddenly realized that he hadn't said "Congratulations", so he hurriedly made amends.

"It's okay, thank you." After Qin Yao finished speaking, he hesitated for a while and asked, "You and Lin Xiao, are you..."

Han Chengyue was taken aback for a moment, Liu Man was fine, and Qin Yao could also see their relationship?

Qin Yao didn't continue, he sighed, and said, "So it's true. When he told us that day, we were all taken aback."

"Did he tell you? When?"

"More than a month ago."

Han Chengyue made a rough calculation, probably when they first got together, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of the lyrics "If you fall in love with someone, you are not afraid to sacrifice your life".

No wonder I've been in Shilong Community these days, breaking up with my parents...

What a "fool".

"Uncle and aunt, are you home now?"

"sorry."

I don't know if it's because I'm someone else's child after all, or it's more than a month's buffer digestion, Qin Huainan and Lin Shuyun's attitude is calmer than Han Chengyue imagined.

Lin Shuyun asked: "Are you serious?"

Han Chengyue nodded, "Well, we are all serious."

Qin Huainan took out a cigarette from his pocket, "If I say this now, I'm afraid I'll regret it later."

Han Chengyue knelt down with a "plop", "I'm sorry."

Qin Huainan rubbed the space between his brows, "Get up, you are not children anymore, your wings are stiff and your feathers are full, what else can we do? I hope you will not forget what you said today."

Qin Yao pulled Han Chengyue up, "Thank you."

"What about others? Where do you live these days?"

"Ah."

Lin Shuyun sighed, "It's really not worrying."

On the day of Qin Yao's wedding, Lin Xiao had a project at hand and couldn't get away with it.Han Chengyue asked him for the specific address and time, and picked him up when it was over.

Han Chengyue sat on the bicycle with one foot on the ground.When Lin Xiao came out, he waved to him, and when he approached, he said in surprise, "Shall we go there by bicycle?"

"You sit up, I'll ride. It's not far from Xiangyi Hotel."

Han Chengyue picked a small road, the road surface was not smooth, when passing the speed bump, the bicycle jumped suddenly, Lin Xiao grabbed his shirt hem, "Stop, I'll ride."

Han Chengyue didn't give way, "Sit down, or it will be late."

In the end it was too late.

Han Chengyue took out the pen that Lin Xiao gave him, and quickly wrote down his and Lin Xiao's names on the red envelope.

The aunt who helped collect the red envelopes praised: "Your handwriting is very beautiful."

"Thank you."

The aunt smiled and said, "Come in, it's already started."

Han Chengyue and Lin Xiao sat down at the table in the back, and a group of photo walls were drawn on the screen in the center of the banquet hall, telling the story of the couple's acquaintance and love today.

Han Chengyue looked at it for a while, and asked softly, "Why do you like me?" He is narrow-minded, conceited, and has many shortcomings.

Lin Xiao's ears turned red, "Then how to say it clearly."

Han Chengyue was not satisfied with this answer, and stared at him without blinking. Lin Xiao thought for a while and said, "At first, I should have been attracted by your strength. You refused to admit defeat and refused to accept your fate."

Han Chengyue felt as if a spring breeze was blowing in his heart.

"The bride and groom are invited to exchange rings."

"Let us bless the couple!"

Talented and beautiful, surrounded by flowers and applause, she is so beautiful to others.

After the ceremony was over, hot dishes began to be served. Before Han Chengyue and Lin Xiao had eaten much, Qin Huainan suddenly walked towards them.

"It's fine if you don't serve as your brother's best man, why don't you help him hold the wine?"

"I..." Lin Xiao paused, "Understood." After speaking, he got up and walked forward.

Qin Huainan glanced at Han Chengyue, "If you are serious about being together, then live a good life."

When going back, Han Chengyue didn't ride a bike, Lin Xiao drank a lot of wine, his stomach was a little bloated, and he wanted to go for a walk.

"It's as bumpy as it was when you came here. You want me to spit out all the stomach acid."

Han Chengyue pushed the bicycle as if nothing had happened, and didn't want to tell him that he deliberately didn't avoid the speed bumps and manhole covers, and let him grab and rely on himself.

When approaching Shilong Community, Han Chengyue parked his bicycle aside.

"Why don't you go?"

Han Chengyue took out a delicate box from his pocket, opened it, and put on one of the silver rings for himself, "Would you like to wear this?"

Lin Xiao's eyes were a little red again, Han Chengyue saw surprise and joy in his eyes, he didn't answer directly, but raised his left hand and spread five fingers in front of him.

Han Chengyue carefully put another silver ring on his ring finger.

This is an ordinary pair of rings, only the names of each other are engraved on the inside.

No flowers, no applause.

But it was the happiest thing in his life.

☆, Extra Story [-] Lin Xiao

On the last day of military training in Gaozhong, the highest temperature record in Liancheng was broken for decades.

Lin Xiao looked up, the sky was blue and cloudless, and there was only a scorching fireball hanging in it. The weather, not to mention his brother Qin Yao, who was already weak, could hardly bear it.

As soon as the parade was over, Lin Xiao ran to the canteen and bought a bottle of mineral water. He only had a ten-yuan note with him, and his aunt gave him eight coins after taking it, but he almost missed it.

"A bottle of mineral water."

"Student, the mineral water is sold out."

Lin Xiao glanced back, and the frustration on the boy's face behind him was too obvious to be ignored, "Why don't I buy something else. Auntie, please help me get a bottle of Peach Flavored Quer." Then , Handed the coins and mineral water to the aunt and the boy respectively.

"Thank you."

Lin Xiao took Quer, turned around and smiled at him, "It's okay, I'll go first." Quench your thirst first, and then go home and memorize the manuscript. I hope Qin Yao won't write the speech too long. Lin Xiao thought about it, I didn't notice that I had paid twice until I sloppily replaced Qin Yao to finish the opening ceremony, and when I returned to the classroom, a person blocked the doorway and blocked the passage, "Student, please let me go."

The man stepped back a few steps, turned his head sideways, showing a handsome and familiar face, "I forgot this that day, the last day of military training." He raised his forearm and spread his fingers. On the palm with clear lines, two The coin is slightly reflective.

"Oh, it's the money for the mineral water?" Lin Xiao was stunned, and at the same time, he was inexplicably funny. This person was too serious. Maybe he searched the entire grade just to pay back the two dollars?I couldn't help teasing him: "Give me only two yuan, isn't it justified? That's the last bottle, and rare things are more expensive, so we have to increase the price, right?"

As expected, he took it seriously, his face changed slightly, and he was a few beats slower when he realized it was a joke, and then he relaxed.

Lin Xiao couldn't control the corners of his mouth, "It's almost time for class. What class do you belong to? If you rush over and arrive late, you won't be fined for copying? My class teacher in junior high school often punished me for copying texts because I missed the class."

"Class Two, Han Chengyue."

When I met Han Chengyue again, it was in the elevator room of the community. He was carrying a schoolbag, dragging suitcases, and several bulging nylon bags. He was a little anxious when he got out of the elevator. Handle, "Han Chengyue? Have you moved to our community?"

He gave a succinct "hmm".

"Yueyue, did you meet a classmate?" The one who spoke was probably his mother, and the other was probably his father. Later, Lin Xiao realized that it was his stepfather. It's no wonder that Han Chengyue didn't seem to be in high spirits that day. His younger sister Liu Man also had a calm expression when they brought them snacks together. It was hard for Lin Xiao to imagine what it was like growing up in a reorganized family after the divorce of his original parents. In his family of four, although Qin Yao was weak, his parents often took him away. In the hospital, the smell of bitter medicine lingers throughout the year. Once, I heard my father complaining, seemingly true or false, that I have been robbed of nutrition in the mother's womb. But after all, they are still close and happy.

Fortunately, they got along well. Lin Xiao hadn't seen the hostess Uncle Liu on the opposite side much before, but now he would run into them from time to time when taking out the garbage and buying soy sauce. It should be because he got off work earlier, but the previous nanny and auntie never saw each other again. Han Chengyue His mother is proficient in all kinds of housework, and what Lin Xiao admires most is her cooking skills. He will never forget the New Year's Eve when he played firecrackers with Han Chengyue. Dumplings, the body will warm up, and spring will come.

Spring is indeed here. The school organizes a spring outing. Lin Xiao is thinking about it. Coincidentally, the classes of the same grade form two groups, and they are divided into a group with Han Chengyue's second class. Unfortunately, the spring outing is a social practice and quality education project. , in principle, you are not allowed to ask for leave. Can Qin Yao's physical strength keep up?

Fortunately, there was no mountain climbing that day, so the head teacher of the second class led the team to trek along the stream along the mountain stream. It didn't take long to find a relatively spacious and flat place, and then rested and prepared to go camping.

The dead wood by the stream was damp and it was not easy to make a fire, so the class leaders took the lead to collect dry firewood.

After a while, it started to rain. The rain was not too heavy, but the thunder was amazing.

"Come inside the tent!"

"Has anyone brought an umbrella? The squad leader hasn't come back yet, why don't we go pick them up?"

Lin Xiao pulled Qin Yao into a big tent and saw that he wanted to poke his head outside, "Brother, don't go out, let us have some hard bodies, bring some umbrellas, and go find them."

Lin Xiao probably guessed that he was worried about his deskmate He Qingyi, and he was more patient when explaining the topic to her than to him.

Lin Xiao didn't find He Qingyi and the others, but found Han Chengyue who was almost unconscious. The bloody wound on his forearm looked like a snake's tooth marks.

The girls together were about to cry, "It's all my fault! What should I do?"

It was probably a story about a hero saving the beauty. Lin Xiao carefully carried Han Chengyue on his back, "Let's go! Hold an umbrella and try not to let the rain hit his wound."

Back at the camp, the head teacher had already called for emergency services, and Qin Yao was leaning against a stone as if he was collapsed.

Lin Xiao learned about it from his classmates. After all, Qin Yao didn't have the strength to speak anymore. Not long after he left, Qin Yao also went out to find someone. He Qingyi accidentally twisted his foot, and Qin Yao came back with her on his back...

One by one, too brave.Why, because I like it?Later, Lin Xiao understood that if he likes someone, he can do anything for him.

How did you fall in love with Han Chengyue?

After being in the same class in Chinese and Science in high school, I can't compare with him in every physics test, I hate it...

At the end of the first semester of freshman year, he recommended a five-day tour of Haining Island to his mother and Uncle Liu. In the end, the plane crash caused a tragedy, and I felt very sorry...

Probably because he kept looking at him, he discovered his strength and hard work...Of course, he also found that the person he was looking at was Qin Yao.

Qin Yao, to Han Chengyue and He Qingyi, is unique and irreplaceable.

Lin Xiao remembered that his parents had mistaken him and Qin Yao, but the two of them could tell at a glance who was genuine and who was fake.

It's not that he hasn't struggled and resisted childishly, for example, he now has dazzling yellow hair, like a clown jumping on the beam, and it is unnecessary to show the difference between himself and Qin Yao, but what's the use?

Destined to be a boundless crush.

Lin Xiao never thought of confessing, instead of piercing the window paper and not having any contact with Han Chengyue, it is better to keep a secret and keep silent, and just get along so casually.

No expectations, no injuries.

But Lin Xiao was wrong, Han Chengyue asked him: "Do you like my sister?" At that moment, he could breathe a sigh of relief, his true intentions were not discovered, but he couldn't laugh naturally, it hurt so much.

Lin Xiao bent down suddenly, buried his head very low, and pretended to laugh out loud. Only he knew that he closed his eyes to keep the salty tears from pouring out.

In fact, it's not to blame for Han Chengyue's misunderstanding.

After the air crash, Liu Man failed the high school entrance examination and fell into a slump. Lin Xiao has always cared about her these years, and enlightened her from time to time, not only out of guilt and responsibility, but also hoping to bridge the gap between her and Han Chengyue, otherwise he would not It is suggested that Han Chengyue prepare Hinata Xiangyang's figure as her birthday present.

Regarding gifts, Lin Xiao felt that he had a lot of experience, knew enough, and thought carefully, so that he could choose a gift that the other party was satisfied with.For Han Chengyue's senior year's birthday, he borrowed Han Chengyue's old pen, and bought a new one according to the brand style.

This brand is very rare. Lin Xiao went to several pen and ink shops but couldn't find it. The owner of the last one was soft-hearted and went to buy one specially.

He didn't lose Han Chengyue's old pen, he deliberately said that he couldn't find it for a while, otherwise he wouldn't use the new pen, he is always able to save money.

Later, when he went to return the old pen, Lin Xiao asked, "Is that pen still usable?"

Han Chengyue didn't answer.

Lin Xiao put down his backpack as if nothing had happened, and unzipped it, "I found your original pen, here it is."

"okay."

"I'm leaving, bye."

Looking in the mirror, the hair has grown a little longer, the roots of the hair reveal the original color, the whole head is three parts black and seven parts yellow, looking a bit like a lunatic, Lin Xiao secretly ashamed, went to the barber shop to cut off all the yellow hair.

When Han Chengyue saw his new hairstyle, he seemed to be more shocked and exaggerated than when he saw him with yellow hair for the first time.

"Weird?"

"No."

If Lin Xiao doesn't believe it, it's strange if it's strange.

Han Chengyue has been studying and working part-time during his college years. At most, he worked three or four part-time jobs.

Lin Xiao was an intern at Qinghui. During his lunch break or after get off work, he would patronize the milk tea shop near the company. He hadn’t seen Han Chengyue for many days, so he guessed that he had resigned from this part-time job, and he probably had to focus more on his studies—he had already decided Graduate school.

The course tasks for postgraduates are much heavier than those for undergraduates, and Han Chengyue's major in physics requires special research.Lin Xiao didn't want Han Chengyue to be distracted by too many part-time jobs, nor did he want him to worry about his source of income.Usually when buying snacks and fruits, Lin Xiao paid for it together, and Han Chengyue would transfer the money without any difference afterwards.How can I help him?

rent!Han Chengyue and his mother lived in the Shilong community before, and the old house has not been sold, and there is a legitimate reason to find a job in the surrounding area - it is convenient to commute to and from work, Lin Xiao thought so, and did the same - After the internship period expired, he rejected HRBP's offer to become a full-time employee and joined another newly established company, Zhiming.

Perhaps it was because of the shortage of manpower and the expansion of business. After arriving in this company, Lin Xiao was much busier than when he was in Qinghui. He felt like a spinning top that continuously rotated from day to night.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Xiao returned home after working overtime for half a day. Han Chengyue and Liu Man were already there, and his mother urged, "Hurry up and change your clothes. It's not easy to wash your suit if it's stained with oil."

Lin Xiao nodded, "Oh."

After dinner, Han Chengyue and Liu Man left.Mother washed the dishes, the Spring Festival Gala had been on the air for a while, and then she got busy again, preparing the New Year's Eve dinner——

Boil cold water, place the dumplings, wait for the dumplings to float up, add some cold water, and when the dumplings float up again, they are almost cooked.

"You help deliver these two bowls of dumplings to Chengyue and the others next door."

"it is good."

Holding two bowls of steaming hot dumplings, Lin Xiao stretched out his little finger and pressed the doorbell of Han Chengyue's house.

Han Chengyue quickly opened the door.

"Hi, your New Year's Eve dinner is here." Lin Xiao said imitating the tone of the takeaway boy, and after speaking, he saw Han Chengyue smile lightly as expected.

Liu Man may have a relatively small appetite, so he only ate a few, and gave the rest to Han Chengyue. Lin Xiao was a little worried that he would be full, "If you can't finish eating, keep it, I'll take it back."

Han Chengyue waved his hand, meaning no need.

Lin Xiao sat and waited, waited, and the sleepy bug crept up, his eyelids couldn't hold back, and he almost fell asleep——

The moment I fell asleep, there was a "boom", and the Chinese New Year's bell rang on the TV.

The night sky outside the window was flickering, and it was no longer the age to be excited by watching fireworks. Han Chengyue asked, "Do you want to go out and watch it? Maybe you can see a little bit." Lin Xiao replied "Yes" without thinking.

In recent years, fireworks and firecrackers have been banned in urban areas, and the suburbs are far away. Even if someone sets off fireworks, it may be difficult to see them in the city.

They stood on the balcony for a long time, and suddenly a cluster of gorgeous fireworks shot up from the sky. In an instant, Lin Xiao saw new shoots growing on the intersecting branches of the plane tree in front of him.

In the past, Lin Xiao liked spring the most, but it changed after the air crash.At the time of Qingming, the crisp spring rain no longer brings tranquility, but depression.

Getting up early to visit the cemetery, on the way, Lin Xiao's eyelids kept twitching. He probably wouldn't bump into someone so early, and he avoided it for so many years.

Indeed not, but the day of his death was very unfortunate.

When Lin Xiao arrived at the cemetery, he walked up a few steps, and saw two familiar figures in a familiar position through the rain curtain.

He also doesn't quite understand his conditioned behavior, probably because he instinctively feels that Han Chengyue doesn't want to see him here.

The sudden accident three years ago left a scar between them that is still clear across time.

However, the moment Lin Xiao was about to turn around, Han Chengyue pulled him back almost eagerly, "Why do you want to run away?"

Han Chengyue didn't hold an umbrella, Lin Xiao hastily turned the umbrella towards him.

"In the past three years, every Qingming Festival and today, the person who has been visiting my mother and Uncle Liu's graves is you, right?"

still found.

Han Chengyue was much calmer than Lin Xiao expected, he thought he would get angry and they would have some unnecessary quarrels.

The "rent" incident also came to light soon after.

After the high school reunion, Lin Xiao almost slipped and fell on the bus, Han Chengyue quickly helped him up, "Thank you."

"Aren't you going to work tomorrow Friday, go home?"

"I'm going on a business trip tomorrow, to the capital of a neighboring province, not to the company."

"What time is the high-speed train?" Han Chengyue kept asking, Lin Xiao was just talking nonsense, and he was a little confused when he asked such a question, so he had to report a time casually: "□□ o'clock."

Unexpectedly, Han Chengyue took out his mobile phone to check the ticket. During this time period, there was no train from Liancheng to the capital of the neighboring province.

"Misremember? I'm going on a business trip tomorrow morning. I haven't figured out the time yet, can't I?"

Lin Xiao was speechless.

"I went to see it, and you lived there for a few nights at the beginning of the year, right? Why did you rent that old house?"

It turned out that Han Chengyue was trying to test it, and he had already gone in as he expected, "It was cold and dark at the beginning of the year, and it was too difficult to get up early, but now the weather is hot and the light is early, so it is more convenient to live at home. Live and cook by yourself.”

This explanation is reasonable, but pale.

If Han Chengyue's heavy eyes had any substance, Lin Xiao couldn't breathe.Lin Xiao was mentally prepared to wait for his further questioning and trial, but Han Chengyue didn't say a word until the bus arrived.

Lin Xiao panicked, "Do you want to hear me tell the truth?"

Simply break the jar and break it.

"I want you to relax and be free. You don't have to work so many part-time jobs, and you can carry everything by yourself."

"Because of guilt?"

Sure enough, I would think so.

"I regret all the time that I recommended my uncles and aunts to Haining Island. In order to let myself breathe and feel better, I can stay away from you, and maybe I will let it go someday."

Something was lingering in his eyes again, Lin Xiao turned his back, trying to make his voice sound calmer, but failed, "Because I like it, my heart aches, and I want to treat you well."

"I didn't intend to stop you. I did it for so many days, but I couldn't hold back today. You don't have to be burdened. Tomorrow, no, forget it now, as if I didn't say it." What a big deal, Lin Xiao numbly closed his eyes.

The expected "death penalty" did not come, and Han Chengyue's fierce but slightly laughing voice came from behind him: "I just confessed and didn't count, isn't it too stupid?"

The centennial anniversary of Liancheng Middle School was on the weekend. Lin Xiao wanted to get up early to go back to his alma mater to visit the teachers, but the alarm clock rang three times and he couldn't get up. He had indulged and messed up the night before, and now his back is sore and his legs hurt, and he can't even move his fingers.

After finally pulling himself up, he walked to the bathroom sink mirror, and saw the sharp and ambiguous tooth marks on the left side of his neck. Lin Xiao pulled up the neckline, and the loose round collar couldn't cover it at all.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he was about to go to the bedroom to change into a shirt with a stand-up collar. There was a movement in the hallway——Han Chengyue went downstairs to buy two breakfasts and came back. Lin Xiao turned his head, revealing the reddish left half of his neck, letting him admire himself "Masterpiece", "Look!"

Han Chengyue smiled with satisfaction, put the breakfast on the coffee table, lifted the hem of his shirt, and turned his back to Lin Xiao.

The scratch marks on his back were criss-crossed, making people think about it, Lin Xiao's cheeks were slightly hot, and he didn't say a word.

The celebration had already begun, but the guard let them both in. Lin Xiao walked to the playground familiarly, and Han Chengyue behind him said, "You were also standing there at the opening ceremony of the first year of high school, with a sonorous voice and firm eyes."

Lin Xiao scratched his nose, "Why do I remember it so clearly, the audience usually dozed off at that time."

It was a rare opportunity to take a nap with eyes closed in the tense study life of high school. Han Chengyue listened intently from beginning to end, and wrote down the host's previous introduction - "Qin Yi, Class [-], Senior High School", and went to find him at the door of his class. At that time, Lin Xiao just thought that he was too serious and honest, and he didn't think about how he knew his class.

When the celebration ended, Lin Xiao had sharp eyes and saw their former head teacher, "Teacher Ding!"

Teacher Ding turned around and saw that it was Lin Xiao and Han Chengyue, smiling all over his face, "You guys are here to celebrate the birthday of your alma mater!" After briefly understanding their recent situation, Teacher Ding praised a few words, there is still work, and they left first, while they had nothing to do wandering around the campus.

It didn't take long for Lin Xiao to break out in a thin layer of sweat, but it was hard to unbutton the buttons.

"You rest, I'm going to the commissary
