back edge

After being exposed to the wind and sun for half a month, Xie Jingnian's entire face turned dark at the end of the military training.

He held up his phone and took several selfies in the corridor, but none of them were very satisfactory in the end.It was too ugly, so I didn't dare to send any of them to Chen Xi.

Ji Guanfeng came out of the dormitory and was startled when he saw Xie Jingnian standing there, "What are you doing here, you didn't make any sound at all."

Xie Jingnian made up an excuse indiscriminately, then changed the subject and asked him what he was doing out there.

Ji Guanfeng's face suddenly turned bitter, and he plucked his red hair a few times as if he couldn't bear it, and his tone was also very low: "The director asked me to dye my hair black, and I have to go to his office to report tomorrow."

The military training at Capital University is managed in a semi-military manner, and access control is required during this period.Thanks to this, otherwise the little red-haired Ji Guanfeng would not be safe on the first day of military training.

"Why aren't you allowed to dye your hair when you're in college?" Wang Jing poked his head out when he heard the two talking in the corridor.

"Dyeing is not allowed." Zhao Zheyin said, "Our school has not clearly stipulated that hair is not allowed to be dyed. The main reason is that the red color of Fengzi is too conspicuous, and other gray or brown ones, anyway, it doesn't matter if the color is not particularly bright."

"Then why does he have to make me dye black?" Ji Guanfeng turned his head to the room and said angrily, "He's sick."

Zhao Zheyin thought he had seen through the counselor's tricks, so he almost snorted: "After dyeing black, it's not easy to wear other colors. He just wants to get it done once and for all."

Xie Jingnian didn't know much about these, so after hearing a few words, he went into the room and lay on the bed to send a message to Chen Xi.

He knew that Chen Xi had just released a new album and was preparing for a tour, so he didn't dare to send too many messages to bother him because he was busy.

"Bro, our military training is over."

Originally, I didn't expect Chen Xi to reply in seconds when I sent it out.After all, some time ago, the two of them basically regarded WeChat as a message board, and there was a few hours between replies to each message.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Just as Xie Jingnian was about to type, Chen Xi sent another photo.

In the photo is the little box he keeps in the corner of his closet.At this time, the pure white box was opened, and the lid was placed beside it. There were a bunch of small things inside the box, the most conspicuous of which was a fluorescent green lighter.

Xie Jingnian had been hiding a little secret for more than a year, and it was discovered by Chen Xi himself so unexpectedly.Shame was mixed with a hint of secret stealing, which stirred up a dense panic in the bottom of my heart.

He didn't know how much Chen Xi had seen, he suddenly sat up from the bed, hoping that Chen Xi would stop there and stop digging through the things under it——

"What's the matter, old Xie?" Zhao Zheyin asked.

"Ah, it's okay." Xie Jingnian also realized that his movements were a little rough, and lay down again.

Then he saw Chen Xi sent over a dozen photos, each of which was a small thing.

There are lighters, faded necklaces, rings, paper-wrapped filters, and the 100 yuan he pressed at the bottom...

Chen Xi dug them out and read them over and over.

Xie Jingnian didn't think anything of it before, but when Chen Xi really found out, he somehow felt like an idiot.

Seeing Chen Xi calling, Xie Jingnian got out of bed in a panic and ran to the corridor.

"Which puppy hides so many things from me?" Chen Kui's voice was low, with some teasing in Xie Jingnian's ear.

"I..." Xie Jingnian leaned against the wall of the corridor with his ears red, and whispered, "I'm not a puppy."

On the other end of the phone, Chen Xi smiled in a rare doting tone: "Okay, you're not a puppy."

There was hardly anyone moving around in the corridor, and it was so quiet that Xie Jingnian could hear his heart beating violently, because he heard Chen Xi say again: "The tour is scheduled for August. You have a month to rehearse after your holiday."

"Yu Ning and Yuan Fangheng are both regular members now. You are the only one left."

In an instant, Xie Jingnian's eye sockets were filled with heat, and the blue and white walls in the corridor gradually became blurred, forming a distorted pattern in front of his eyes.

In fact, Xie Jingnian has always been a dispensable role for Anti-Blade.

The name of the anti-blade guitarist just sounds nice, but in fact, even without him, Chen Jiu can still play and sing.He knew in his heart that although Chen Xi said that he was a serious guitar player, in fact he was just pampering him.

He didn't help with the composition and lyrics of the new album, and he wasn't there when the album was recorded.His connection with Anti-Blade, apart from Chen Yu, only had a few performances.

Before today, he never thought that he would have the opportunity to tour with Chen Xi.

"Why?" Xie Jingnian asked tremblingly.

He always knew that Chen Xi didn't really want to go too far in the band.He hopes that he can have a stable job, instead of being busy with the band, and facing the risk of dissolution at any time.

Backblade probably never belonged to him, but Chen Xi did.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and after a long silence, he smiled and said, "It's a pity that I don't want to be with you."

Chen Xi also said that he especially liked the way Xie Jingnian played the guitar, and he liked it from the first time he saw him.

Xie Jingnian and Chen Xie separated from No.60 for three days, and Xie Jingnian took his first cardio-pulmonary class.

The teacher put one sample picture after another of lung lesions on the big screen, repeatedly emphasizing the impact of smoking and canceration.

Xie Jingnian looked at those pictures, biting the necklace with his teeth lightly, and suddenly thought of Xie Laosan.

A year ago, the doctor said that Xie Laosan died of liver cancer.It is probably because of his long-term drinking, coupled with some bad habits, that his illness has been suppressed for a long time, so it came so urgently and so fiercely.

Xie Jingnian took out his phone right after class, and edited WeChat to send Chen Xi the picture of his blackened lungs taken in class just now, along with a piece of advice on quitting smoking.

Chen Xi froze suddenly when he saw the picture, and sighed helplessly when he saw the message from Xie Jingnian below.

Xie Jingnian said that he wanted him to quit smoking and live longer to be with him.

Chen Xi did the math, and he was six years older than this kid.

"Well, quit."

Chen Xi threw away the cigarette he was about to light, and said he would not touch it.

He went to his own room to dig out the pick that Xie Jingnian spit out from his mouth before, and found a craftsman to cover a layer of metal on the rounded edge to weight it, and drilled a hole in it, threaded it into a necklace and hung it on the own neck.

He also imitated Xie Jingnian, whenever he wanted to smoke, he put the pick in his mouth and bit it, unexpectedly the effect was not bad.

The next day, Xie Jingnian also received a photo of Chen Xi.

In the photo, Chen Xi was sitting casually leaning on the sofa, holding a black and white pendant expressionlessly, he couldn't see what it was.Just relying on Chen Xi's face is enough to make Xie Jingnian unable to take his eyes off.

"Brother Rotten is so handsome."

Xie Jingnian casually sent another kiss emoticon.

Chen Kui also replied with a kissy expression, two kittens in Q version.

The corner of Xie Jingnian's mouth rose even more.

"Oh, old Xie, can you stop laughing so pervertingly?" Zhao Zheyin looked at Xie Jingnian on the opposite bed for a long time, but still couldn't help saying, "I've been watching you for a long time, you laugh so much that I get goosebumps. "

Xie Jingnian glanced at Zhao Zheyin, turned around and faced the wall, and continued to send messages to Chen Xi.

"What are you getting involved with, young lovers? Why don't you hurry up and read the knowledge points for next week's exam?" Ji Guanfeng looked very cute after dyeing back his black hair, and he was very attentive to his studies.

"Okay, you just bully me and Jing'er have nothing to do with each other." Zhao Zheyin resented.

Ji Guanfeng said: "In our dormitory, I am thankful that I have a partner. I just broke up a few days ago. We have three single dogs."

Zhao Zheyin was willing to listen to gossip, and Pidianpidian leaned over and asked, "You two get along very well, why are you divided?"

"It's nothing." Ji Guanfeng looked indifferent, "She thinks my black hair is too rustic."

Xie Jingnian, who was chatting happily with Chen Xie, heard this, and suddenly thought of his tanned face, he used a little more force to hold the phone, and even the corners of his mouth dropped.
