the moon in the attic

Gao Chen raised the window of the car, turned the steering wheel and went straight to the wedding scene, like a quail along the way, without saying a word.

Whether Yan Yang didn't drink that bottle of water, he didn't look back all the way.

At first, Han Yu was still sitting with his back stiff, but later he closed his eyes and didn't look at Yan Yang, and started to look at Yan Yang blatantly in the mirror.

Yan Yang has indeed lost a lot of weight. He didn't have much flesh before, but at least his chin is not so sharp. However, it may be that his lines have become tougher since he grew from a teenager to a young man.

He originally thought that he could only see Yan Yang when he arrived at the wedding scene, but he didn't expect that after Gao Chen picked him up, he received a call from Xing Yihua, saying that he would follow Yan Yang.

Xing Yihua didn't know about his relationship with Yan Yang, but Gao Chen was clear about it.

Gao Chen put down the phone and started to feel awkward, "Brother Yu, Yan Yang will arrive at the airport later, should we pick it up by the way, or..."

Gao Chen didn't finish the second half of the sentence, Han Yu interrupted him, "Go on, it's very convenient."

The two were walking from the high-speed rail station to the airport. Han Yu was originally sitting in the passenger seat, but after thinking about it, he said to Gao Chen, "Chen'er, please stop by the side of the road. I'll move to the back."

He was afraid of sitting in the co-pilot, Yan Yang opened the door and saw him and left.

Gao Chen nodded, double flashed to the side of the road and stopped the car, Han Yu got out of the car and changed to the back seat.

Xing Yihua chose a good day, the two met several wedding cars along the way, Gao Chen was blocked two kilometers away from the airport, thinking that maybe all the people in the whole country are getting married today.

Han Yu didn't talk much when he was in school, and since he knew he was going to follow Yan Yang, he didn't say a word. Gao Chen also felt a little embarrassed, so he picked a noisy song and played it.

When the traffic started to move, Gao Chen couldn't hold back and asked, "Brother Yu, you two... have you two been in touch since then?"

Han Yu didn't reply at first, and it took about half a minute before he said, "No."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to want to explain to Gao Chen, or he just said casually, "I didn't dare to contact you."

No one dared to contact anyone, Han Yu didn't say anything, and Gao Chen didn't ask any more questions.

The car stopped and started on the road, Gao Chen didn't say anything, and Han Yu remained quiet. After turning a corner, Han Yu suddenly said, "Is that him in front?"

Gao Chen drove the car, looked around, but saw no one, "Where is it?"

Han Yu leaned forward with the backrest of the front seat, pointed to the right, "Under the tree, white shirt."

Gao Chen looked to the right, and saw a tall and thin figure far away, and when he drove closer, he recognized Yan Yang.

Han Yu had already sat back, and Gao Chen changed lanes, thinking that Han Yu's eyes were really sharp.

The car drove to Yan Yang, Yan Yang asked for water after getting in the car, Gao Chen choked up when he reminded him that Han Yu was behind.

The atmosphere in the car was too suffocating, neither of them spoke, so Gao Chen had to bite the bullet and ask Yan Yang, "How long have you been waiting?"

Yan Yang seemed to be distracted, Gao Chen thought he hadn't heard, and was about to ask again, when he heard Yan Yang say, "Not long, half an hour."

The temperature outside is approaching 40 degrees, so waiting outside for half an hour on this day should be uncomfortable if not uncomfortable.

Gao Chen took a bottle of water from the armrest box and handed it to him, "Drink a couple of sips, and when we meet, I will put a sack on Dahua. Whatever date we choose, the groom will not spare him."

Yan Yang wanted to smile, but the corners of his mouth didn't move for a long time. He twisted the water and took a sip, closed his eyes and leaned back in the chair, "I'll squint for a while."

Gao Chen responded and put down the sun visor for him.

Yan Yang didn't speak any more, and leaned back on the chair with his eyes closed, as if he really fell asleep.

Gao Chen glanced in the rearview mirror, Han Yu's eyes were burning, as if they were going to poke a hole in the back of Yan Yang's head.

The place where Xing Yihua held his wedding was quite far from the airport, and no one said a word along the way. When getting off the airport expressway, Gao Chen called Yan Yang, "Master, wake up."

As he spoke, he glanced at the rearview mirror again, and Han Yu looked away.

Yan Yang didn't know whether he was really sleeping or pretending to be sleeping, so he blinked and asked Gao Chen, "Are you here?"

"There will be more than ten minutes." Now the traffic started again, Gao Chen slowed down, "It's where we had dinner when you came back last time."

It's good that he didn't talk, but when he spoke, the atmosphere in the car was not right. Gao Chen didn't realize it at first, and added jokingly, "It's the year of the monkey, you may have forgotten where you are."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much, so he pretended to cough and stopped talking.

Yan Yang glanced at him and thought, it's really fucking okay, but it's obvious that you are the only one with a mouth in this car, right?

But there was more than one person talking in this car, and within half a minute of silence, Han Yu asked unhurriedly, "Have you been back for a long time?"

Yan Yang didn't want to talk, but he didn't want to embarrass Han Yu too much, so he answered with "um".

Han Yu moved his lips, as if he wanted to ask something, but Yan Yang closed his eyes tightly and leaned back again.

Han Yu's face was not very good-looking, Gao Chen was always paying attention to him, and couldn't help explaining, "This one who doesn't come back all the year round, and won't stay for a few days when he comes back, is busier than the spinning top under the whip of Mr. Park."

"No..." Yan Yang opened his eyes unbearably, met Han Yu's eyes in the mirror, paused for half a second, and finished speaking nonchalantly, "...that's an exaggeration."

They all met their eyes, and it would be too deliberate to look away, Yan Yang simply turned around, "There are many projects in other places, it is inevitable."

After speaking, he gave a very formulaic smile, looking as good-looking as an angel descending from the earth.

Han Yu had no manners, and stared at him without looking at him until Yan Yang couldn't maintain his expression, so he said calmly, "Really, I come back often."

Yan Yang was blocked for a while, said "that's it", and leaned back on the back of the chair.He didn't deliberately turn his head this time, so from Han Yu's perspective, he could see a very shallow scar on his forehead in the rearview mirror.

Han Yu thought dazedly, he had two stitches at that time, so he wondered if it still hurts now.

Gao Chen was no longer smart, and drove tremblingly along the way, stuck in traffic for a long time, but it was over.

Xing Yihua was waiting at the door with Fan Qing. It was a happy event, and some old friends hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they came over cheerfully.

"Master! Brother Yu!" Xing Yihua yelled at them.

Yan Yang went over to give him a hug, and then hugged Fan Qing, "Happy newlyweds."

Fan Qing joked with a smile, "The busy man is willing to come back."

After hearing this, Yan Yang glanced at Han Yu for some reason, and it happened that Han Yu was also looking at him. Yan Yang pretended not to see him, and said with a smile, "I don't care about money, are you busy making money?"

Fan Qing also laughed for a while, seeing that Xing Yihua was pulling Han Yu to talk, he hurriedly greeted, "It's so hot, let's go in first."

Xing Yihua led them in and was busy picking up other guests.

Ji Hao arrived earlier than them, and was drinking a cup of tea at the moment. When he saw them coming, he stopped drinking the tea and was about to stand up while holding his chair.

Yan Yang hurried over and held him down, Ji Hao squinted his eyes and smiled, and called out, "Yang Yang."

Ji Hao has been in poor health since he was in school, and he hangs himself with medicine all day long, and he even had a major operation some time ago.

Yan Yang walked over and touched his cup, the tea was still hot.

Ji Hao stretched out his hand and patted Yan Yang's arm, and then gave out again, "I really have no conscience, and I know how to come back."

It is very convenient for Xing Yihua to arrange the seats. There are several tables for high school classmates, several tables for college classmates, and several tables for colleagues and relatives. They are all playing together in high school, and they are all locals.

Except for Yan Yang and Han Yu who didn't stay here, most of them came back to develop after graduation. Yan Yang didn't come back often in recent years, and he really didn't see many of these old friends.

He hasn't developed any other skills in the past few years, but his words have become more and more slippery, "I will tie you up later and make you look at me every day."

Ji Hao smiled, didn't ask any more questions, and beckoned them to sit down quickly.

There were only two empty seats next to each other on the table, Yan Yang Dafang took one of them, and Han Yu sat next to him.

Xing Yihua and Fan Qing's wedding is not very particular, and they don't care about the auspicious or inauspicious time. Everyone is busy, and it will start when everyone is present.

There were old acquaintances on the table, and they were over-alcoholic in a few words, Yan Yang felt sick to his stomach, so he didn't drink more after a few drinks.

Han Yu has been paying attention to him. Seeing that he stopped moving, he poured him a cup of hot tea and handed it over, pretending to be nonchalant, "Uncomfortable? I remember you had a good drinker before."

"No," Yan Yang paused, "The amount of alcohol is still the same."

Han Yu followed up and said, "I can drink well now."

Textbook style looking for words.

Yan Yang drank some wine, and just after being outside in the sun for a long time, his mind was confused, and he reflexively said, "Didn't you pour it after three glasses?"

After he finished speaking, both of them were a little silent. Everyone at the table could talk about the past, but they couldn't.

Yan Yang didn't want to say more, but because someone wanted to say something, Han Yu said slowly, "You still taught me how to drink."

Han Yu didn't drink at all before, and the only time he got drunk was when Yan Yang took him with him.

At that time, they were intimate, kissing wetly in the dimly lit attic without any scruples, and their breath was full of each other's smell.

Yan Yang couldn't help but glanced at Han Yu. Han Yu's shirt was a little wrinkled, but it could still be seen that the fabric was excellent, and he was completely different from the boy in school uniform at that time.

Han Yu said that Yan Yang taught him to drink, but Yan Yang felt that he actually taught Han Yu a lot, but he didn't want to talk about it, and turned his head away from looking at Han Yu.

It just so happened that Xing Yihua toasted to this table, but it seemed that Yan Yang's silence was not so deliberate.

Xing Yihua usually doesn't wear formal clothes very much. Today, with his shirt and trousers standing there, he looks much more mature. He doesn't look like he was in his teens, but he is still that person anyway.

It is said that time can change a lot of things without knowing it, but in fact, in these years, except for the adult look on the eyebrows, everyone has not changed much.

Xing Yihua pinned the red flower of the groom's official on his chest, held Fan Qing in one hand, and held the wine glass in the other, glanced around the table, and laughed before he could speak.

He smiled, and everyone at the table laughed too. After a long while, Xing Yihua half joked and half sighed, "I'm busy, but I'm here. I'm so touched."

Gao Chen held up his glass and pretended to say, "Participating in a wedding will cost me millions."

Hearing this, Xing Yihua raised his finger and pointed at him, "You heard it, this guy is rich, and those of us who are not doing well will rely on him from now on."

Fan Qing wore a very simple toasting attire, and the short hair that had been kept for many years had also grown back, neatly tucked in the back, but it was not the case when he said, "Where is this? We will remarry after we get divorced. You still have to pay several million."

Xing Yihua frowned, and squeezed her arm, "Nothing to hide or stop."

Fan Qing glanced at him, "It's better to be angry with me twice than anything else."

A group of people at the table started laughing again, Gao Chen clicked his tongue lightly, and joked, "You two just broke up [-] times, and this is the only way you can still be together."

Holding the teacup, Ji Hao said straight to the point, "I still don't want to share, otherwise I won't be able to get together last time."

What he said was nothing to others, but it precisely poked the lung tubes of the two people present.

Yan Yang didn't know what he was thinking, took the bottle and filled the glass.

Han Yu looked at him expressionlessly, without saying a word, and after a while, he also filled the wine glass.

At that time, Yan Yang really didn't want to break up.

He said to Han Yu, "I'll ask you one last time, if you want to separate, break up with me, then you won't have a chance to be with me again."

But Han Yu said, "I'm sorry."

So Yan Yang left the narrow attic where he couldn't even straighten his waist.

The last thing he said to Han Yu was, "I never want to see you again."

Later, Han Yu also left the attic.

From being too poor to eat, to being able to rent a building with heating, to being rich enough to buy a new house with an attic on Yinghui Road, he has never been able to see Yan Yang again.

Han Yu sometimes fantasizes that when he makes a good appearance, maybe he can be saved.

But so many parties have been held, Han Yu has never been absent, and Yan Yang has never come.

Yan Yang said that if he had no chance, he really didn't have it. He said that he didn't want to see Han Yu again, but he really didn't want him to see it.

Gao Chen was looking at the two of them, seeing that their expressions were not right, he raised his glass, "You are obviously married, isn't it? It's because Xiao Qing'er is kind-hearted, so let's have some fun."

Everyone at the table toasted.

Xing Yihua froze, "That's because Xiao Qing'er loves me."

Fan Qing told him to leave with a smile, but still said, "Respect true love."

Everyone's wine glasses met together, "Respect true love."

Yan Yang's wine ran down his throat, and just when he felt the energy in his stomach coming up again, he felt Han Yu touch his hand under the table.

Yan Yang lowered his eyes slightly, and Han Yu leaned over and said something to him.

By the time he realized what he said, the words had spread from his ears to his bones, carrying fire all the way, which made his internal organs ache.

Han Yu said, "What about you, do you still love me?"

Yan Yang didn't speak for a long time, and Han Yu was also very stubborn, staring at him without saying a word.

After a while, Yan Yang withdrew the hand that was touching Han Yu under the table, took the wine bottle and filled the glass, and raised his hand to Han Yu.

Did not answer whether he loves or not.

What can love, what can not love.

The lonely white rabbit, walking around, everyone said that clothes are not as good as new, people are not as old, but after so many years, no matter how much you can't forget, the people in front of you are not the same people.
