silent me, silent us

"Hey?"

"Five, six, seven, eight! Happy birthday to you——Happy birthday to you—" A loud chorus came from the other end of the phone, so loud that you could hear it without leaning against your ear.

"Thank you." Xu Qizhang glanced at Ye Guang, who was awakened by the sound, with a shocked expression on his face, and smiled apologetically while sitting by the bed.

"What are you doing today? Come out! We're going to help you celebrate your birthday!"

"Uh... today..."

"See you at my house at one o'clock in the afternoon!" After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Ah Jian, this guy is always so authoritarian.

Xu Qizhang raked his hair and turned to see the petrified Ye Guang.

"You you you you your birthday today?" I don't know why, but he was shocked.

"Well, the national calendar birthday."

"Why didn't you tell me..." Then he could prepare a gift.Ye Guang felt that he was so embarrassing, that he had done everything (?) with him, but he didn't even know about this little thing.Ordinary friends might be able to get along, but they... Anyway, although festivals are a businessman's trick, they are still necessary for relationships.

Feeling bad about not knowing.Ye Guang covered his head with the quilt and seemed to understand his embarrassment. Xu Qizhang took Ye Guang's hand holding the quilt, slowly climbed up from the fingertips, inserted into his fingers, and then interlocked.

"My lunar birthday is NO.15 in September, and it will be more than a month away; O-shaped Libra, my hobbies are singing and cooking..."

Can cooking be a hobby?Ye Guang wondered.

"Cook rice for the person you like." It turned out that the sentence was not finished yet, and Xu Qizhang continued to speak with a chuckle and took the hand he was trying to break free.

"My dream is to become a musician, and the other is..."

The ending sound dragged on for a long time again, this way of speaking always makes people extremely angry.

"Xu Qizhang, you must always..." Pushing back the quilt forcefully, Ye Guangkai's half-closed mouth was gently blocked.The fresh aroma of brushing his teeth in the morning made him almost breathless, and he blushed with all the stuff in his chest.

He hasn't even brushed his teeth, washed his face and kissed him!

There was a car whizzing by in the alley outside, Xu Qizhang left Ye Guang's lips, and whispered on his lips.

"The other one is...to be with Ye Guang."

There was still the breath left by him at the corner of his mouth, and Ye Guang choked for breath.

Isn't a dream just a dream?

Xu Qizhang regards being with him as a "dream"?

How many times does this person have to pull his heart before he is willing?

"Your second dream is too easy to realize."

Grasping the palms intertwined with him, Ye Guang sat up and faced him.

What he meant was that he would help him fulfill his second dream.

Ye Guang looked at Xu Qizhang, and he smiled happily as expected, but it was a little different from usual, and other emotions seemed to be mixed with his sincere joy.

Why do you have to show that expression?

What are you thinking?

"Qizhang, mom is going out, it doesn't matter if you don't use the noodle stall at night."

Mother Xu's voice suddenly came from outside the door, causing their hands to separate.

As long as there is a third party present, even holding hands becomes difficult.

"Yes." Xu Qizhang answered the door, stood up, walked to the closet, and changed his clothes.

With the sound of Xu's mother closing the iron door, the room was silent for a while, only the sound of clothes rubbing against each other.

Some words, silently, have never been said.

The birthday party that Ah Jian helped Xu Qizhang organize, how should I put it, it should be the kind where Xu Qizhang would be torn up and thrown into the sea if Xu Qizhang didn't come.

They just stepped into Aji's house, and the sound of cannons can be heard endlessly.In the small bachelor apartment, there were more than a dozen or twenty people crowded together. It was different from the atmosphere of the student party, and it was full of the smell of PUB that night.

"Shou Xing and his man are here!" Ah Jian, still in reggae look, laughed, holding a can of beer in his hand, blushing as if he was a little drunk.

Knowing that he was joking, Ye Guang exploded with a loud bang as if hit by an elephant.No one knew the embarrassment in his heart.

The two were surrounded by the crowd and pushed to the low table in the center of the living room, which was filled with eaten food and a big cake in the shape of a guitar.Xu Qizhang was pressed to sit down in front of the cake, and those men and women who looked more mature than them began to sing happy birthday again.

It's clearly just looking for a name to have a party.Xu Qizhang sighed, originally planned to come to say hello and leave, but now this situation must not be able to leave.He turned his head and looked at Ye Guang who was sitting in the opposite corner. Although he had a smile on his face, it could be seen that it was a social "Pei Xiao".

"Shou Xing is going to present a song later!"

"Make a wish and blow out the candles first!"

A Japanese girl in a cake skirt and with big brown curly hair sat beside Xu Qizhang and urged her.

In fact, everyone here, from the time they came in to the present, Ye Guang has automatically put on mosaics for them.In his eyes, it was just a group of mosaic people surrounding Xu Qizhang to celebrate his birthday.

But how could that girl's slender hand on Xu Qizhang's shoulder be so hatefully clear?

And why did Xu Qizhang not push her away?

Forget it, it's a birthday party, everyone should be more enthusiastic, it should be...

But I'm still sitting here!

Although a little corner...

Ye Guang, who did not realize that he regarded himself as the "prime wife", was struggling and debating over and over again, with a smile on his face (gritting his teeth), but his hands under the low table were tightly clenched.

"Hey, do you know how many customers Lin Sang has lost since you stopped singing?" The man with short bleached flaxen hair and a suit of black pants punched Xu Qizhang, making a gesture to strangle him. neck.

"That's right, I didn't realize you were a high school student before, I was deceived by you." Smoking a menthol cigarette, the woman rubbed Xu Qizhang's hair with her black Koudan hand, which made Ye Guang's heart tighten.

"By the way, Xiaozhang, which group belonged to the English song you sang before? I couldn't find it on the Internet..."

Pushing people around Xu Qizhang to talk and making him busy answering, even if he wanted to sit next to Ye Guang, he would be pulled away immediately, leaving Ye Guang alone without knowing it.

Ye Guang couldn't get into the topic they were talking about, and he knew every word Xu Qizhang said, but he couldn't understand it when they were grouped together into sentences.

It was different from the feeling of PUB at that time. In the space at that time, although everyone didn’t know each other, they all had the same belief. The purpose was to shout, sweat, and swing to the music, so it was very easy to integrate into it.But it's different here. In a small room, it's easy to divide the divisions between acquaintances, non-acquaintances, painful reconciliation and discord, and whether they are right or wrong.

He feels so far away from himself in a world surrounded by crowds.If I had known earlier, I would not have come...

Ye Guang's eyes darkened, and then he saw the "Hai Bo" girl kiss Xu Qizhang's cheek under the booing of everyone.The new hatred added to the old hatred, so excited that they almost turned the tables.

Ye Guang took a deep breath, endured the strong unhappiness welling up from the bottom of his heart, and gulped down a few mouthfuls of the drink that Ah Jian handed over.The sweet fruity sparkling drink glides down the throat, and the cold and stimulating feeling is exhilarating. When the drink is almost bottomed out, the slightly pungent smell in the cup is dull.

"Ugh! Is this wine?"

"Pei Xiao" was overwhelmed by alcohol in an instant, and the young man who was completely overwhelmed by alcohol turned his head to look at Ah Jian with a bitter face, causing Ah Jian to laugh and rub his hair and said, "Have you ever drunk? Congratulations on becoming an adult!" Oh, the hair quality is good, Ye Guang."

Alcohol flashed through his mind in an instant, Ye Guang was dizzy from being rubbed by him, but he felt very comfortable, so he just rubbed Ah Jian for a long time in such a stupid way.

"Hey, your hair is not only good, but your skin is also good. Tell me, what skin care products do you use?" Ah Jian touched his own face with dull eyes, and then touched Ye Guang's face. He nodded and lamented that youth is capital.

Clam, what?Why is it itchy on the face after being dizzy?Who is this mosaic man in front of him?The alcohol fermented rapidly, allowing him to delve into the appearance of the object in front of him.

Ye Guang's eyes widened, he leaned very close to Ah Jian, his center of gravity leaned forward, and almost his whole body was hanging on Ah Jian.

"Hey...Ye Guang..." Ah Jian leaned against the wall, regained consciousness, swallowed his saliva and looked at Ye Guang's red lips from alcohol, his blinking eyes were foggy, and his eyelashes were long enough. Makes one want to reach out and fiddle with it.

Is it normal for a high school boy to be so alluring?

"Hey! You guys are doing gay over there!"

Hearing the keyword "GAY", Ye Guang's misty eyes instantly woke up.

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, Ah Jian was magnified three times before his eyes, his eyes were closed and his lips were pursed with a face of intoxication. He was so frightened that he poured a drink on his face without thinking.

"Ah! Ye Guang, what are you doing!" Ah Jian was completely woken up, she didn't know whether it was from embarrassment or something, her reggae braid stood up like Medusa's hair, and she blushed with anger.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Ye Guang hurriedly stood up, but because of alcohol, his brain congested and his legs went limp, he fell backwards and hit the low table, and food and drinks were spilled on the low table, making it a mess.

"Ah! My bag!"

"Go get a rag!"

"Let's ice the cake first! It takes up a lot of space!"

In the midst of the chaos, Ye Guang looked at Xu Qizhang helplessly, and then rushed out of the door tremblingly in his eyes that could not see any emotion.

Flustered, impatient, uneasy.

This is not his world.

He is not his world.

After leaving school, it turns out that they have different worlds.

He screwed up his birthday party, and he didn't want to see the disappointment in his eyes either, and ran away.
