hypocritically

The final days went by very quickly. After finishing the last professional course, the roommates couldn't wait to pack up and go home. Only Min Yun and Guo Xiao were left in the dormitory.

Min Yun is a local, it is convenient for him to go home, and he is not in a hurry. Guo Xiao originally had no plan to go home, and he is not in a hurry. Get comfortable.

Just now, Liu Weisong and Sun Xuehai left in a hurry and turned the dormitory into a mess. Min Yun and Guo Xiao were responsible for putting things back in place, and the other for sweeping the floor.

"Have you found a job yet?" Min Yun saw a suitcase packed with clothes standing next to Guo Xiao's cabinet.

"I found it." Guo Xiao was very lucky. A few days ago, he went to Xu Keqin's house to get the keys. On the way, he found that a fast food restaurant was recruiting workers for winter vacation. He happened to catch up. "I found a job in a fast food restaurant."

Finding a job is a good thing. Min Yun remembered that he had invited Guo Xiao to live in his home, but Guo Xiao declined. He wondered if this winter vacation job could provide Guo Xiao with a place to stay.

"Then do you have a place to live?"

"Yes." The fast food restaurant provides two meals, and I can live at Xu Keqin's house.

Min Yun gave a light "Oh", he would have misunderstood it, thinking that the fast food restaurant provided food and lodging, so he didn't ask other questions.

The two of them left the school when there were fewer people in the afternoon, and they broke up at the bus stop.

Before leaving, Min Yun made a special statement, "Call me if you need anything, we are close anyway."

After separating from Min Yun, Guo Xiao also took the bus to Xu Keqin's school, the bus changed to the subway, the subway changed to the bus, and finally arrived at Xu Keqin's home.

Big B’s school is on holiday earlier than Guo Xiao’s. Xu Keqin went back to his father’s place yesterday, and now the house is empty, only Guo Xiao is alone.

Looking at the situation at home, Xu Keqin should have had the housekeeper clean it up before he left, and everything was neatly arranged.

Guo Xiao took off his shoes, dragged his suitcase into the living room, and sent a message to Xu Keqin, "Xu Keqin, I'm at your house."

Since the end of the semester, Xu Keqin's reply to his messages has slowed down a lot, and sometimes he sees his messages very late. Guo Xiao knows that he is busy, but he doesn't know what he is busy with.

While waiting for the news, Guo Xiao walked around the house again. He was familiar with the location of everything in the house. He walked into the kitchen with ease and opened the refrigerator. To his surprise, the refrigerator was full of After picking up the ingredients, he glanced at the time on the price tag, and found that they were all bought recently.

He was a little relieved that Xu Keqin was serious about eating at home, that's right.

Just in time, Xu Keqin sent him a message back, "Well, I can't take the things in the refrigerator with me, so finish eating early."

There are so many things, enough for Guo Xiao to eat for a week, he can't help but put on the packing bag, the packing bag is cold, "Are you coming back for the winter vacation?"

Forget about summer vacation, but it’s winter vacation. Whether it’s a student or a migrant worker, those who celebrate the Chinese New Year will always go home, unlike me, who is alone and away from home.

"Not necessarily. It may be very busy during this time, and sometimes I don't see the news." When Xu Keqin received the news from Guo Xiao, Xu Keqin just boarded the plane. Gu Yixin's favorite orchestra was touring in country C. He accompanied Gu Yixin Xin go together.

"Who is it?" Seeing Xu Keqin holding up his mobile phone, Gu Yixin asked casually.

"Spam text messages." Xu Keqin exited the text message interface smoothly, and changed the topic calmly, "I just checked the weather and the temperature over there is a few degrees lower than that in China."

"I've brought my clothes." Gu Yixin smiled.

The relationship between myself and Xu Keqin is very vague now. Xu Keqin accompanies her to and from get out of class, and goes abroad to attend concerts with her. They have many topics in common. Xu Keqin is more easy-going than she imagined, and they get very close.

But this approach is not to the point of ambiguity, it seems that they are very good friends, because Gu Yixin has never seen Xu Keqin express his willingness to associate.

Even though Xu Keqin had vaccinated Guo Xiao in advance, Guo Xiao still didn't expect that it took less than half a month for Xu Keqin to say "sometimes I can't see the news".

Guo Xiao sent a lot of messages to Xu Keqin, when did he rest, learned a soup at home during the rest, the ingredients in the refrigerator were eaten up, one of the elevators in the community was broken, he was almost late for work today, and went home tonight It took more than ten minutes to find the shared bicycle. He sent Xu Keqin a lot, but he didn't get any reply.

He didn't want to pester Xu Keqin either, but even Min Yun followed his parents to visit relatives in other provinces. There were no more people he knew left in this city. Guo Xiao thought that it was enough to keep in touch with Xu Keqin.

Knowing that Xu Keqin was busy, but he didn't expect to be so busy, Guo Xiao lay on the bed, seeing only the messages sent, he couldn't help sighing, the phone screen suddenly went dark, he tapped the screen again, but there was still no response.

Guo Xiao quickly got up from the bed and charged the phone, but after charging for more than ten minutes, the phone still didn't turn on. Guo Xiao vaguely felt that something was wrong. Could it be that the phone is broken?

Fortunately, he was resting the next day. Guo Xiao went out early in the morning to find a mobile phone repair shop. The boss checked and said that the battery was dead. Guo Xiao spent more than 100 yuan to replace it with a new battery.

The boss reminded, "Your mobile phone is a model a few years ago, and now you can still use it after changing the battery. If you have the conditions, change to another mobile phone."

Guo Xiao said "thank you". Changing a mobile phone also requires money. If you live frugally, you can squeeze out money to replace it with a new mobile phone. However, this phone contains the text messages between him and Xu Keqin. Since the death of his parents, Guo Xiao He has a special nostalgia for people and things around him, and he can't bear it.

The weather was fine today, and the sun was still visible. Guo Xiao got on the bus, sat by the window, and then sent a message to Xu Keqin, "The battery of the mobile phone is broken, and it was repaired at the repair shop just now."

Because it is winter vacation, there are many more customers in the fast food restaurant than usual. Guo Xiao’s daily life is busy and fulfilling. The fast food restaurant opened until the afternoon of the New Year’s Eve. , Guo Xiao went home alone, so he simply worked half a day in the store.

When closing the store after get off work, Guo Xiao also got a red envelope from the store manager. He opened it and took a look. There was 100 yuan in it. He was afraid and sent a photo to Xu Keqin.

"I worked half a day extra, and I still got a 100 yuan red envelope."

The bright red color looked very festive and festive on the phone, but no one was there to accompany Guo Xiao, and Xu Keqin still didn't reply.

The cold wind in the deep winter hurt his face, Guo Xiao tightened his down jacket and rode his bicycle to go home.

After going abroad, Xu Keqin didn't care about the phone card anymore, and didn't want to be distracted, which made Gu Yixin suspicious. After half a month, he was really a little tired. Fortunately, Gu Yixin had a good time.

After leaving the airport, Xu Keqin called a car for Gu Yixin. Gu Yixin was going to a relative's house later, and it was inconvenient for Xu Keqin to see her off, so the two had to break up here.

"It might be a little busy these days." Gu Yixin talked to Xu Keqin while holding the car door.

Xu Keqin nodded, "Be careful on the road, and call me when you arrive."

After the taxi drove away, Xu Keqin pinched the bridge of his nose. The airport was crowded with people. When he opened his eyes, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Xu Keqin took out his mobile phone and turned it on, and then waved to stop the taxi. He put his luggage in the trunk, and just got into the back seat of the taxi when the driver asked him where he was going, and the text message sounded one after another.

The red envelope sent by Guo Xiao, Guo Xiao said that his mobile phone was broken, Guo Xiao was almost late for work, Guo Xiao learned a soup, Guo Xiao...

In fact, without Guo Xiao, Xu Keqin's side would be very quiet, and there were very few people who contacted him by mobile phone. The deafening notification tone and the continuous pop-up messages stepped on Xu Keqin's heartbeat every time, which was the same as his heartbeat. the beat.

When going abroad with Gu Yixin, Xu Keqin just told his father to go play with his classmates. After his father agreed, he didn't ask anything else.

In this world, Guo Xiao seems to be the only one who cares about where he is going and what he is doing, and his connection with this world seems to be entirely dependent on Guo Xiao. Xu Keqin felt it was ridiculous, but at the same time, he felt inexplicable emotions in his heart.

"Hello, where are you going?" Seeing that Xu Keqin was silent, the driver asked again.

Lanterns and colorful flags were hung at the gate of the airport, and people who came from afar embraced each other affectionately and said "Happy New Year" to each other.

Yes, tonight is New Year's Eve.

So what should Guo Xiao be doing?It might be a bit more lively in the fast food restaurant, but after get off work, Guo Xiao stays at home alone, eats something casually, and then watches the TV, waiting for the New Year's bell.

Any festival is meaningless to Xu Keqin, he has no family or partner to accompany him, and no... person he particularly wants to see.

"Sorry." Xu Keqin opened the door and got out of the car, took the suitcase out of the trunk, and bought the fastest flight ticket to Province A.

When Guo Xiao arrived downstairs, the supermarket closed for the last half an hour. He hurried to buy something and went home. He took a shower as usual, and then cooked himself a bowl of instant noodles. Today was a holiday, and he also braised chicken legs .

The warm-up program for the Spring Festival Gala was playing on the TV. Just after Guo Xiao finished calling with his aunt, he received another call from Min Yun.

"Guo Xiao, I'm home, are you really not coming to my house to celebrate the New Year?"

Guo Xiao didn't want to bother Min Yun, "I won't go today."

"Then how do you eat?"

Guo Xiao stirred up the instant noodles in front of him, "I'm already eating, and I'm eating chicken drumsticks."

Min Yun on the other end of the phone paused. His parents originally planned to spend the New Year at a relative's house, but he was the one who made a fuss about coming back, "Are you alone tonight? How about I come find you?"

Just as Guo Xiao was about to speak, the sound of a key came from outside the door. The key passed through the lock and made a knocking sound. He raised his head subconsciously. Who is it?

Who is this sentence, Guo Xiao asked in his heart, his throat tightened, and the door lock clicked, Guo Xiao said to Min Yun, "Hang up first", and hurriedly stood up.

The anti-theft door opened slowly, and Xu Keqin stood in front of the door dragging his suitcase.
