Energy conservation law

Shen Yicheng didn't go back to the old house for several days, edited the message several times to ask Yu Zhuoyi if he really wanted to live in his house, deleted and typed, typed and deleted and repeated several times, finally nothing did not ask.

He didn't contact Yu Zhuoyi, and Yu Zhuoyi basically wouldn't take the initiative to contact him.In the blink of an eye, the new semester has already started for a week.Yu Zhuoyi hasn't lived in his house yet, Shen Yicheng is inexplicably relieved, maybe it's just a joke.

"Where did you go, and it's so late?" Liu Xin sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at his son who was changing shoes at the entrance.

"Student's birthday."

"Why don't you answer the phone, I don't know if I have to go to school tomorrow."

"know."

Opening the shoe cabinet, he found the familiar pair of sneakers underneath. Shen Yicheng's heart suddenly tightened, and he looked upstairs.

"Why are you standing still, come here." Liu Xin sat on the sofa and waved to him.

Shen Yicheng even forgot to wear his slippers, and walked into the living room in a daze.

"Zhuoyi is here at night, remember to say hello to him when you go up." Liu Xin slightly lowered her voice, with a gentle smile on her face, she seemed to be in a good mood.

"What time is it, how do you say hello?" Shen Yicheng replied softly, and went upstairs slowly, not listening to what his mother said anymore, just scolding him and explaining to him.

When he walked to the door of the room, he stood for a while looking at the closed door next door, and raised and lowered the hand that wanted to knock on the door.When he opened the door of his own room to go in, Yu Zhuoyi happened to open the door and come out.

For a while, they were relatively silent, and an unnatural air current flowed between the two of them.

"You..." Shen Yicheng scratched the back of his head, he wanted to ask a lot of questions, such as why you agreed, was it voluntary, and would you get used to coming here... It seemed like he couldn't even open his mouth.

Yu Zhuoyi grabbed the doorknob with his hand and suddenly didn't know what to say, so he said without thinking, "You are not wearing slippers."

Shen Yicheng glanced at his feet, "Oh, I forgot."

Then there was another long silence.

Obviously...it's not like this.

"Rest early." Shen Yicheng spoke first.

"Ah, you too."

It seems that something bound each other invisibly, and the familiarity that they had spent together day and night in the old house seemed to be gone in a flash.

The insomnia at night caused Shen Yicheng to be unable to get up the next morning when the three alarm clocks took turns to wake him up, and in the end his mother did it himself.

Since entering the third year of high school, Liu Xin has not only provided Shen Yicheng with a car pick-up and drop-off service, but also provided him with morning call service.

When he went downstairs, Yu Zhuoyi had already sat on his seat and had breakfast.The two sat opposite each other and just nodded, Shen Yicheng casually ate a custard bun and said he didn't want to eat it, and went to the car first.Yu Zhuo followed after drinking the last sip of soy milk.

The two of them looked out of their respective windows along the way, and Liu Xin didn't know what to say while driving, so he remained silent all the way.

The first one arrived was Yu Zhuoyi's school. After Yu Zhuo got out of the car, she said, "Why don't you talk to Zhuoyi."

Shen Yicheng felt awkward and weird about his mother's intimacy with Zhuo Yi, "No."

"Didn't you have a good time playing with him when you were at grandma's house?" Liu Xin looked at Shen Yicheng through the rearview mirror.

"Have it?"

"Didn't you still sleep in the same room with him?"

Shen Yicheng suddenly looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his whole body was going to fluff up, but he wanted to pretend nothing had happened, "That's because the air conditioner is broken!"

"Really?" Liu Xin obviously didn't believe it. If the air conditioner is broken, you can go home, or there is a guest room.

"believe it or not."

"Don't you like him? You—"

"I didn't!" Shen Yicheng retorted excitedly, poking his neck.

"What are you so excited about?" Liu Xin was taken aback by his reaction.

When the school arrived, Shen Yicheng quickly opened the car door and left quickly.

After returning home at night and just finished eating, Yu Zhuo was about to go out with his schoolbag on his back, Shen Yicheng hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

"Evening self-study."

This is the first conversation between the two today.

Shen Yicheng grabbed his schoolbag and wanted to go out too. Liu Xin came out of the room, "Where are you going?"

He hurriedly put on his shoes, "Study at night."

"You finally know that you're going to study late? I'll see you off."

Shen Yicheng didn't answer anymore, and ran out the door with his shoes on.

"Why are you walking so fast?" Shen Yicheng panted and followed Yu Zhuoyi.

The two walked side by side to the bus stop.

"Why do you agree?" Shen Yicheng put his hands in his pockets, kicked the floor, and asked with his head down.

"what?"

"Why did you agree to come and live here?"

"Grandma asked me to come."

"Grandma asked you to come and you came?!" Shen Yicheng was speechless, and his suppressed emotions suddenly broke out.

"She said," Yu Zhuoyi was not afraid, met his eyes, and said sincerely and innocently, "Look at you, give me more pocket money."

"Yu Zhuoyi!" No matter what time it is, he is still in the mood to joke.

"The bus is coming."

As soon as the car stopped, the person went up and disappeared, Shen Yicheng jumped out of anger looking at the car window.

The bus to take is different.

In a bad mood, he didn't bother to wait for the bus, so he took a taxi directly, and somehow went to the classroom for evening self-study.

There are more chances to meet each other than in the old house, but there are fewer words to talk about.The real time to be alone is only for a while when I go to the bus station for evening self-study, Shen Yicheng seems to be a different person, and he rarely talks.When the two of them are together, Shen Yicheng is often the first topic to talk about. Shen Yicheng doesn't speak, and Yu Zhuo has to think for a long time when he wants to speak first. Each, headed in opposite directions.It was already past ten o'clock when I got home, and after washing up and going to bed, it was difficult to communicate.

On the weekend, Shen Yicheng's father who never sees the beginning and the end finally returns home.

Yu Zhuoyi saw someone when he went downstairs to eat, and he quickly covered up his embarrassment and discomfort for a moment. He had thought about this day since the day he promised to come.

Shen Hailin raised his head and greeted him cordially, and asked him a few words about whether he was used to living here or not.Yu Zhuo replied politely one by one.

Fortunately, everything is much better than expected.

During the meal, Shen Yicheng seemed to be in a bad mood. For some reason, he took a few bites and said he was full, so he went upstairs.

Yu Zhuoyi stood at the door of his room, and when he raised his hand to knock on the door, the door was pulled open. Shen Yicheng changed his clothes and looked like he was about to go out. He didn't know what time it would be until he left. return.

"Let's talk." Yu Zhuoyi spoke first without hesitation.

"We'll talk about it when we come back." Shen Yicheng avoided him and went out of the room, while Yu Zhuoyi stood there stupidly for a while.

"Where are you going?" Liu Xin shouted after the man's back.

In the billiard room, Shen Yicheng opened the cabinet, took a bottle of beer and pried it open from the corner of the table, and gulped down the bottle.He took another bottle and just when he pried it open, Qiao Jiaxing came over and took it away. He didn't care about it, and took another bottle with his backhand, and was taken away again.

"what?!"

"What are you doing again? You're so angry. Why haven't you been normal since Yu Zhuo moved into your house?"

Shen Yicheng didn't want to pay attention to him, so he didn't drink at all, picked up a pole, and walked over aggressively, as if he was going to fight with someone.

"Chengyan, let's play a game."

Seeing his posture, Li Chengyan hesitated for a second, and threw a pole to Qiao Jiaxing, "You follow him."

Qiao Jiaxing gave him a blank look, looking at Shen Yicheng's posture playing billiards, if there was a gun in his hand, the billiards would probably become a sieve.

After venting a few times, no matter how I hit it, it was wrong, so I gave up and threw the stick and went to the balcony outside. Qiao Jiaxing also followed.

"awkward."

"What's wrong?"

"Everywhere is awkward."

"No, why on earth don't you want him to live in your house?" Qiao Jiaxing didn't understand, if he hated Yu Zhuoyi, who would believe Shen Yicheng's love for him.

"I...you know why."

"This reason is not valid at all. It was your mother who asked him to go home, right? Did your mother treat him badly? Did your father treat him badly?" Qiao Jiaxing asked back.

Shen Yicheng calmed down, yes, no one treated him badly, his parents were very nice, especially his mother, who would often find topics to talk to him at the dinner table, but it was him and himself who were really embarrassed, or maybe they said It's just my own unilateral awkwardness.

"Is there any smoke?" Shen Yicheng lowered his head, a sense of powerlessness coming from nowhere swept through every nerve.

Qiao Jiaxing showed him two pockets, but they were empty.

"Do you know what you look like now?" Qiao Jiaxing seemed to have thought of something, and twitched the corner of his mouth with a bit of sarcasm.

"like what?"

"It's like having a crush on the daughter of the neighbor's aunt who I've known for a long time, but I dare not treat her for fear that my mother will find out that you like her."

"Qiao Jiaxing, are you crazy?! He is my younger brother!"

It’s over.

The most outrageous doubts and fears seem to be becoming reality step by step.

"Really? You also said last time that you are not related by blood." Qiao Jiaxing deliberately provoked him again.

Sure enough, Shen Yicheng grabbed Qiao Jiaxing by the collar, the anger in his eyes was about to burst out like magma.

"What? Is it right?"

Shen Yicheng took a deep breath, let go of his hand, "I, no, like, like, him." He gritted his teeth hard and said every word clearly.

Qiao Jiaxing looked into his eyes, not letting go of any change in his mood, searching for something on his face, Shen Yicheng couldn't bear only the inquiring eyes, turned his face away.

"Best."

The wind blew on the road, and when I got home, I was much calmer.It just so happened that the auntie was about to go up to deliver milk to Yu Zhuoyi. Seeing this, Liu Xin stopped Shen Yicheng, "Just in time, you go up."

Just as Shen Yicheng wanted to blurt out his refusal, he thought of the conversation he had with Qiao Jiaxing tonight, he didn't dare to treat him well, that's right, he is his younger brother, he said to himself.

"Oh." The mouth responded in a neutral manner.

Auntie and Liu Xin smiled at each other.

Shen Yicheng pushed the door open and entered, Yu Zhuo sat up straight for a moment, thinking it was his mother.

"it's me."

Yu Zhuo raised his head and glanced at him in surprise.

"No, your milk."

Yu Zhuoyi took it with his hand and put it on the table. Not knowing what to say, he asked, "Do you want a drink?"

Shen Yicheng smiled, and said in a tone of voice, "Primary school students only need to drink milk at night to grow taller."

Yu Zhuoyi directly raised his foot and kicked him hard.

"What are you doing?!" Shen Yicheng bent down and looked at the other party displeasedly, covering his calf.

"I..." It's just a subconscious movement, I'm used to playing around, but when I think of the inexplicable relationship between him and Shen Yicheng recently, I'm at a loss for words.

Shen Yicheng threw the few papers he picked up on the way from the milk delivery just now on the table, "I wrote it for me."

Yu Zhuo looked at him blankly.

"Why are you in a daze, or else you'll kick me forever." When he got to the door, he had to turn around and tell him not to be discovered by his mother, it was the test paper he used for tutoring.

Shen Yicheng quietly leaned against the door panel of the room, the squabbling attitude disappeared in an instant, and the questions he didn't want to think about tonight seemed to be slowly climbing up his mind like vines because of Qiao Jiaxing's words , making it impossible for him to escape.

In fact, many times the questions already have answers in their hearts, but whether these answers are what they want in their hearts.Only when the answer is not what you want, will you subconsciously deceive yourself that there is no answer yet.

Like something has changed, but also like nothing.

For example, at the dinner table, Yu Zhuoyi’s most hated dishes will still be deliberately replaced in front of him. Another example is when watching a football game together because of different teams.

"Where's Yu Zhuoyi?" Shen Yicheng asked Liu Xin as soon as he got in the car after finishing his tuition.

"Go to the library."

"Then take me to the library too."

"Yo, okay, you're making progress now." Liu Xin teased his son, and suddenly felt grateful for his previous decision.

"I was already very motivated."

Shen Yicheng found Yu Zhuoyi in the corner of the second floor of the library. What kind of reading is he doing?

I couldn't help but pull out the chair and sit on the side without making a sound. The weather was fine and the sun was shining. The wind blew through the treetops and the leaves were swaying.

Shen Yicheng also quietly lay down on the table.

That's fine.
