back edge

Probably when it was time for business, the bar began to serve people one after another, and the noise echoed vaguely from the front hall to the corridor.

Xie Jingnian didn't know what he was still doing standing here, he couldn't even ask Chen Xi why he was here, his feet felt heavy like lead.

"What's the matter?" Chen Yu pinched Xie Jingnian's chin with one hand so that he couldn't hide anymore, and leaned over to look at his bitten wound very closely.

Xie Jingnian opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he saw the woman from just now coming around the corner.

She probably didn't expect that Chen Xi was still here, she smiled stiffly and asked, "This is you..."

"My brother." Chen Xi let go of his hand, and asked the woman how many pieces of paper she wanted.

"Then I'll go first," the woman said.

Chen Kui nodded, leaning against the wall against Xie Jingnian to make way for her.He took the paper and wiped the blood on Xie Jingnian's lips mercilessly.

It hurts.

Xie Jingnian was pinned down by Chen Xi and couldn't move. Only when he got close could he tell that his body was mixed with the smell of perfume.The taste of peaches is hidden in the strong tobacco, revealing a greasy sweetness.

It turns out that Brother Yu likes this.

Then he probably won't be like this in his life.It was also today that he discovered that compared to Chen Xi being with others, what he couldn't accept was Chen Xi ignoring him and looking at him indifferently like a stranger.

He wanted to stay by Chen Xi's side.

Even if he is just a cheap younger brother picked up by him.

Xie Jingnian blocked Chen Xi's hand, subconsciously licked the wound with the tip of his tongue, and tasted a very faint fishy sweetness.

"I'm fine Brother Xi." He tried hard to control his voice so as not to let out the tremor, pretending that nothing happened just now, and asked him with a smile, "Why are you here?"

"Come here and help adjust the equipment." There was no trash can nearby, so Chen Xi put the blood-stained paper into his pocket, "Why are you here?"

"I……"

Xie Jingnian hesitated, not daring to say that he came to play.After all, Chen Jiu never liked him coming to places like bars.

He was still making up excuses, but here Yu Ning ran over to him.

"Xie Jingnian, you've been eating shit - damn it!"

The visitor looked at Chen Xi's expressionless face in horror, and stopped abruptly on the spot.

"You just went to eat shit." Xie Jingnian replied to him, and hurriedly skipped Chen Xi and dragged Yu Ning to the front hall, "Brother Xiu, let's go first."

Yu Ning was out of his mind along the way, muttering in his mouth, thinking that he was going to die, he suddenly looked up and saw Xie Jingnian's red eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Yu Ning asked cautiously, "He...he scolded you?"

Xie Jingnian shook his head: "It's fine."

After walking through the front hall, he looked back again, and sure enough, he didn't see Chen Xi's figure.

What is he still thinking here.

The lights flickered on the stage, brilliant colors flashed across Xie Jingnian's cheeks one after another, and the sweat fell into his eyes and it hurt.

Xie Jingnian plucked the strings with his fingertips, all his emotions were vented in the music, and his body became hot and unbearable amidst the cheers of the crowd.

Heat rushed to his head.What women, what peaches, all fucking farts.

Is it wrong for him to like Chen Xi?

No.

Is it wrong that Chen Xi doesn't like him?

nor.

Is that woman wrong?Is there anything wrong with peaches?

He Xie Jingnian just likes Chen Xi, but he just can't understand that there are women and peaches around him.But he couldn't do anything except make himself jealous like a dog.

Xie Jingnian is not even as good as a fart——

The moment the strings broke, Xie Jingnian didn't feel the slightest bit.He stopped playing like nothing happened, and walked off the stage by himself, letting the booing of the crowd and Yu Ning's shouts explode in his ears.

Chen Xi hid at the very back of the crowd and almost stopped Xie Jingnian when he was about to go out.

Chen Xi asked him if he hurt himself.

But in fact, everyone knows that when the strings are broken, there is no lethality at all, at most it is a small mouth and a few drops of blood.

Xie Jingnian still said it's all right, but Chen Kui forcefully opened his clenched fist, turned on the flashlight with his mobile phone, and carefully checked every finger, palm and back of his hand.

In the past, Xie Jingnian liked Chen Xi's strength very much, but this time he was too tired to like it.

On the way home, no one spoke, everything seemed to be back to the big day, and the two of them completely cut off communication.

This should be the first time Chen Xi went home in several months.

The house was as clean as when he left, Xie Jingnian would clean it inside and out whenever he had time.

When Chen Xi was away, he picked up the skill of cooking again.I haven't cooked for a long time, the result is not very delicious, it's far from Chen Xi.

"Brother Jiu, I'm hungry." Xie Jingnian put down his electric guitar, lay down on the dining table and looked at him.

Chen Xi went under the faucet and splashed cold water on his face, the water splashed all over the black marble stove: "What do you want to eat?"

Xie Jingnian pulled a piece of paper out of the drawer and gave it to him, saying, "I want to eat the noodles you made."

"Persimmon eggs?"

"Row."

He sat there, following Chen Shi all the time with his gaze, thinking vulgarly in his heart, if only he could do this every day.

The Chlorophytum in Ji Heyi's office was finally hung up by him as it deserves its name. The long green leaves hang down from top to bottom, all the way to the ground.

Chen Kui specially wore a long sleeve to cover his patterned arms.

The question is about summer camp.This time it is the Olympiad held in the province, and they will go to the cities along the river for a one-month training camp.

Xie Jingnian didn't say anything, turned his head to look at Chen Xi, and found that the latter was also looking at him.

Looking at each other for a long time, Chen Xi asked, "Do you want to go?"

"Let's just say that the training camp is definitely beneficial. If Xiao Xie can get a place in the provincial competition, it will also help the university admissions next year." Ji Heyi said suddenly.

"Go." Chen Kui didn't intend to listen to Xie Jingnian's opinion, so he made a final decision.

Ji Heyi looked at Xie Jingnian again, meaning to ask his own wishes.

Of course Xie Jingnian listened to Chen Xi and nodded.

"Brother Xiu, I'm leaving next week." Xie Jingnian followed behind Chen Xi, tirelessly playing the childish shadow stepping game.

Chen Kui cooperated with him very perfunctorily and hid for a while: "Yes."

Xie Jingnian still got his wish and stepped on the surrendered shadow.He asked Chen Xi if he would miss him if he had to leave for a month.

Chen Kui still nodded as usual and added a "hmm".

The weather was sweltering, but Xie Jingnian was still unaffected, playing and stepping on shadows, sweat dripping all over his face.

"Stop jumping around." Chen Xi pulled him into his arms and kept him from moving.

It was still a few minutes away from the bus station, and Ansheng Xie Jingnian couldn't stand it for a while.

"Brother Xiu, it's hot." Xie Jingnian couldn't break free from being held by Chen Xiu, so he could only beg for mercy in a muffled voice.

"Are you still making trouble?"

"No more trouble."

Chen Xi still didn't let him go.

"Brother Yu, you are lying."

"I didn't promise to let you go..."
