Bamboo horse is difficult to ride

After Zheng Xin came back, he thought for a long time and decided to call Zhou Mingdi.

The time of the call was at night, around nine o'clock. After the call was connected, the voice of the other party was a bit noisy, and the voices of boys and girls drinking and chatting could be vaguely heard.

"Hello, who is it?" Zhou Mingdi's voice was as clear as in memory.

"I... I am Zheng Xin."

On the phone, Zhou Mingdi was silent for a few seconds, and then there was the sound of leaving his seat and walking towards a quiet place.

"Xin Xin? You still remember to call me. I thought you didn't want to contact me long ago."

"Uh... no, Brother Xiaodi, I was not stable a while ago, so..." Zheng Xin is not very good at making excuses, and he is a little guilty when he speaks.

"I didn't leave my address when I sent money to my card, and I didn't make a phone call after going to City C for more than half a year. Isn't this a sign that you want to break up with me?" Zhou Mingdi's tone was that kind of seriousness in a mockery, which was audible Going up is full of blame.

Sure enough, Zheng Xin was said to regret that he deliberately didn't contact Zhou Mingdi during this time, "I, I just don't want to trouble you, I'm sorry Brother Di, I should have called you earlier."

Zhou Mingdi laughed and said, "If you're really guilty, let's meet each other!"

"Meet?" Zheng Xin originally just wanted to call to say hello, but Zhou Mingdi was a little surprised when he didn't expect Zhou Mingdi to meet him.

"Since I heard that I'm going abroad to call, but you're so petty, you don't even want to see me in person? Don't you want to see me off?" Zhou Mingdi's tone made Zheng Xin unable to refuse.

"Okay," Zheng Xin said cruelly, "I'll ask for leave now and go back tomorrow."

Zhou Mingdi laughed, "Stupid boy, why do you still look like this? Can I let you take a trip? It's not enough to take the train back and forth! Just tell me the address, and I'll find time to go there."

In less than a week after the answer, Zhou Mingdi really came to City C.

It was after eleven o'clock in the evening when Zhou Mingdi arrived at the rice noodle shop, and the people in the shop had almost left. He seemed to know that Zheng Xin was off work at this time, so he stepped on it on purpose.

Zhou Mingdi didn't drive, he came by taxi. He was wearing a pair of blue jeans and a white casual suit jacket. His hair was cut short. He was as handsome as ever. Even the proprietress kept looking at him and asked Zheng Xin if this was Zheng Xin. friend of mine.

Zhou Mingdi was carrying a trolley case in his hand, put the trolley case aside, sat next to the window, and looked at Zheng Xin with a smile.

After Zheng Xin greeted the last customer, he sent the boss and the proprietress away, and the shop returned to tranquility. Then he went to sit down opposite Zhou Mingdi.

"Brother Xiaodi, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for a long time, let's go, go out and have something to eat, I invite you."

Zhou Mingdi smiled gently: "Isn't this just a restaurant? Why else go out to eat?"

Zheng Xin took a look at Zhou Mingdi's clothes that were incompatible with the rice noodle shop and the brand-name suitcase on the ground, and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "The food here is too simple, let's go out to eat."

"No, just eat something."

"But it's closed now, so there's nothing left."

"Then let's cook a bowl of noodles, either dried noodles or instant noodles, and a poached egg." Zhou Mingdi said with a smile, "I haven't eaten your cooked noodles for a long time, and I miss it!"

Zhou Mingdi's eyes were too gentle, Zheng Xin's face turned red, he nodded and went to cook the noodles.

What Zheng Xin cooked was vermicelli, put a few pieces of rapeseed, beat two candied poached eggs, and added some sausages.

Zhou Mingdi couldn't wait to take a bite: "Yeah, it really still tastes the same!"

Zheng Xin was suddenly in a trance for a moment. He remembered that one afternoon, there was a person who sat across from him and ate boiled instant noodles regardless of his image.

Zheng Xin quickly chased away his irrelevant thoughts, and gave Zhou Mingdi a pickle: "Try this hot and sour bamboo shoot, our restaurant's signature dish."

Zheng Xin opened two bottles of beer, and the two of them blew on the bottles while eating noodles.

"Brother Di, which country do you want to study in?" Zheng Xin's concept of studying abroad is still limited to going abroad.

Zhou Mingdi took another bite of noodles: "Britain."

"Oh, when are you leaving?"

"tomorrow."

"……What?"

Zheng Xin was startled, he almost spit out the drink in his mouth, Zhou Mingdi is leaving tomorrow, and stayed here to drink with him the night before leaving?

"What's the matter?" Zhou Mingdi raised his eyes to look at him, those eyes became more translucent under the light, which seemed to contain a meaning that Zheng Xin didn't quite understand.

"So fast? Is there no one to see you?"

"My parents are busy earning money. They didn't care about me since I was a child. I was alone wherever I went. As for those friends and classmates, they have already had farewell banquets N times... Only you and Lin Lang are left gone."

Mentioning Lin Lang, Zheng Xin's heart suddenly moved.

The scene of the three of them living in Lin Lang's room appeared in his mind. At that time, Zhou Mingdi and Lin Lang were still best friends, and he secretly liked Zhou Mingdi, and secretly envied and jealous that Lin Lang could sleep with Zhou Mingdi. bed.

Things in this world are really unpredictable. Who would have thought that the three people at that time would have such a relationship now.Zhou Mingdi broke up with Lin Lang, and even though he and Lin Lang were in the same city, they avoided seeing each other.

What about him and Zhou Mingdi?The ignorant first love back then has long since disappeared without a trace with the passage of time. Everyone is growing up, and Zheng Xin's feelings have already become rational with age.

Zhou Mingdi also seemed to recall the past, and smiled helplessly: "Lin Lang and I haven't seen each other alone since the fight last time. When his family had an accident, he was under a lot of pressure. I asked my dad to hope that my dad would I can help, but Lin Lang's father's incident got involved in the province and was regarded as a typical example. My father can't help it. Besides, my father is a businessman. He doesn't care much about me, let alone helping Lin Lang. Dad, businessmen are not keen on things that are not profitable."

Zheng Xin looked at Zhou Mingdi in surprise, he didn't expect Zhou Mingdi to speak so truthfully!

This was the first time Zhou Mingdi chatted with him so heartily.

Zhou Mingdi added: "I think, according to Lin Lang's haughty temper, he is not willing to accept my help."

Zheng Xin nodded slightly, "Yes." Both he and Zhou Mingdi were most familiar with Lin Lang's temper.

"Brother Xiaodi, because of me, you and Lin Lang have caused trouble. If it wasn't for me, you two wouldn't be in such a tense fight."

Zhou Mingdi didn't speak for a while, picked up the bottle and took a sip. After a long time, he suddenly said, "Xin Xin, when did you like men?"

"..."

Zheng Xin didn't expect Zhou Mingdi to ask such a question out of the blue. He didn't want to answer, but when he saw Zhou Mingdi looking at him expectantly, he coughed lightly and said, "Maybe I've always liked it?"

"Always? Then you don't like girls at all?" Zhou Mingdi asked inquiringly.

"This one……"

"Why don't you like girls?"

"..." Zheng Xin was very embarrassed. To him, this question was like asking Zheng Xin why you are a man?How does he know, he is a man, he just doesn't like girls.

Zhou Mingdi saw that Zheng Xin didn't speak for a long time, but still didn't give up, and asked again: "You really haven't liked any girls?"

Zheng Xin thought about it, and there really wasn't one, but when he saw the thirst for knowledge in Zhou Mingdi's eyes, it seemed as if he would hurt him if he shook his head.

Zheng Xin bit the bullet, bit his lip, and lied vaguely: "I liked it too, but I didn't like it later."

"Oh—" Zhou Mingdi nodded deeply, and finally stopped asking.

Just as Zheng Xin breathed a sigh of relief, Zhou Mingdi suddenly said, "Xin Xin, you didn't feel bad when I did that, did you?"

"Ah?" Zheng Xin was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Zhou Mingdi was referring to the time when he had a crush on him.

"This...I, I..." Zheng Xin stammered.

Zhou Mingdi chuckled lightly like self-deprecating: "I think about it now, I was really unresponsive at that time. In fact, I always saw you peeking at me. At that time, I just thought your eyes were strange and wanted to tease you, so I Every time I go to Lin Lang's house, I will find an opportunity to bully you. Haha, I really—"

Zheng Xin quickly shook his head: "I don't remember those things for a long time. I only remember that once you gave me a make-up class and helped me explain the questions. My test scores improved a lot that time."

Zhou Mingdi said helplessly: "That's also because it's funny to see you scratching your hair when you don't know how to do the questions. Don't you realize that every time I finish explaining one question to you, I will give you a more difficult question for you to do. If you can’t do it, you’ll grab your hair, and I’m rocking back and forth laughing.”

"Uh..." Zheng Xin stared blankly at Zhou Mingdi.

"Xin Xin," Zhou Mingdi sighed softly, "Tell me, if I hadn't been so dull back then, I wouldn't have gotten along with girls, and if I wasn't with He Jiani, you and Lin Lang wouldn't have gotten along ? You won't even get to school without learning?"

Zheng Xin said seriously: "It's my choice not to study, there are no other factors, so don't think so."

"But at the very least, you still secretly like me!"

What Zhou Mingdi blurted out stunned both of them, and no one spoke. After a while, Zheng Xin lowered his head in a panic.

It's embarrassing for someone who has had a crush on him to tell the truth to his face.

Zhou Mingdi also seemed a little at a loss. He looked at his watch, stood up and said, "I'm leaving. My dad has a car to take me to Beijing. I have a plane tomorrow night. I'll take a taxi to the agreed place first."

"Ah? Going overnight?" Zheng Xin raised his face and asked with wide-eyed eyes. Those eyes were black and bright, and his eyes were clear. Because of the wine, his cheeks were slightly reddish, and his lips were also shiny.

Zheng Xin may never know that he looks good at this moment!

Zhou Mingdi stared at him for a long time, until Zheng Xin looked puzzled, then he hurriedly looked away, nodded, pulled up the box and walked out.

Zheng Xin quickly stood up and chased to the door, "Do you want to..."

As soon as the words came out, Zhou Mingdi suddenly stopped, turned around and pressed Zheng Xin's shoulder, lowered his head, and kissed Zheng Xin's lips.

"..." The sudden warmth on his lips made Zheng Xin's eyes widen in disbelief, his whole body stiffened.

Zhou Mingdi kissed very hard, even stuck out his tongue and licked Zheng Xin's lips.

In less than ten seconds, Zhou Mingdi let go of him, pulled the suitcase and hurried out, got into the waiting taxi and left.

Zheng Xin was completely stunned, touching his lips foolishly, unable to recover.

After standing for more than half an hour, he moved his stiff legs and sat down.

This is - Zhou Mingdi's kiss?

I didn't dare to think about it before, but now I feel so unreal.

Zheng Xin sat there for a while, then used the phone in the store to call Zhou Mingdi's cell phone. He called Zhou Mingdi several times in a row, but Zhou Mingdi didn't answer the phone.

On the second day's work, Zheng Xin was a little absent-minded, but he was fine, because he felt that he had let go of both Zhou Mingdi and Lin Lang, but he was inexplicably worried about Zhou Mingdi.

He didn't know what Zhou Mingdi's sudden kiss meant last night.

In the evening, he called Zhou Mingdi's cell phone again, but no one answered.

Zheng Xin put down the phone slowly, thinking silently in his heart, I wish you a smooth journey.
