"Xiaoyuan?"

This name, which seemed to come from a dream, hit him instantly, causing him to almost twist his ankle on the beach.

Zhou You couldn't even move, and his memory was suddenly ignited.

The man sitting on the rock stood up slowly, he threw the cigarette butt, took off his hat, Zhou You saw a pair of bright eyes, the man looked at him, unbelievable, but did not dare to act rashly, for fear that this was a dream.

Is it... Liang Jiayu?

Zhou You looked at him, he was tanned a lot, his hair was cut very short, his cheeks were very thin, and he felt different from before.He had grown a beard, wore red strings around his wrists, and hadn't had time to put on his slippers.

Zhou You froze for a moment, his first reaction was to run away.

He turned sideways and ran quickly.

Liang Jiayu shouted behind him: "Wait. Wait a minute!"

He wanted to catch up, but he didn't have time to put on his shoes. Running barefoot, he still couldn't catch up with Zhou You.

Run fast, run faster.

Zhou You ran back to Shi Nanchuan's house in one breath, but he was still a little slow, Liang Jiayu had already seen him.

"You've got the wrong person!" Zhou You shouted in panic, and closed the door all at once.

Shi Ruofei happened to be watching TV at home, and when he saw Zhou You running back out of breath, his face was ugly, he was startled, stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou You looked at him, and before he had time to speak, someone slammed on the door behind him.

"Xiaoyuan, Xiaoyuan, please open the door. I...can you open the door?" The man spoke softly, but he used a lot of strength in his hands, as if he was about to smash the door open in the next second.

Zhou You backed away in horror, regretting in his heart why he went to that cave.

Shi Ruofei was shocked, and said, "The person who chased you?"

Zhou You: "...No."

Shi Ruofei: "Who is that? Why did he call you Xiaoyuan?"

Zhou You was in a state of confusion, and said, "I don't want to see him, I'll go out through the back window."

Shi Ruofei grabbed him and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

He let Zhou You upstairs, into his room, and then took a baseball bat.Zhou You hid in the room, locked the door, and heard Shi Ruofei open the door. It seemed that Liang Jiayu wanted to rush in, but Shi Ruofei beat him up.

"Get out! I'm calling the police!"

"Wait..." Liang Jiayu was hit by Shi Ruofei's stick on his back, and felt a sharp pain, "Wait, I'm looking for someone, I'm looking for Zhou Xinyuan."

"I don't know Zhou Xinyuan."

"Zhou Jiamu."

"do not know."

"You help me." Liang Jiayu stood in front of Shi Ruofei, looking at him desperately, "You let me meet him, I have been looking for him for a long time."

Shi Ruofei still held the baseball bat, but frowned, and said, "The person you mentioned really doesn't exist, so let's go."

Liang Jiayu had no choice but to leave.

Zhou You squatted at the door, listening to the movement, Shi Ruofei knocked on the door and said, "He's gone."

He opened the door, Shi Ruofei said, "Why are you crying?"

"Huh?" Zhou You wiped his eyes, "I must have got sand in my eyes when I ran back."

At night, Nan Chuan came back. At the dinner table, he said that a strange man had been squatting in front of their house.Zhou You's heart skipped a beat, then he continued to eat without saying anything.On the other hand, Shi Ruofei couldn't help but glance at Zhou You, hesitant to speak.

Shi Nanchuan said gently, "What's wrong?"

Shi Ruofei: "No..."

Knowing son Moruo father.

After dinner, Shi Ruofei went to wash the dishes, but Shi Nanchuan sneaked in and asked, "Are you all right?"

Shi Ruofei glanced outside, but didn't see Zhou You, so he whispered to Shi Nanchuan what happened in the afternoon.Shi Nanchuan nodded and sighed, "He must know Xiaoyou."

"He said he was looking for Zhou Xinyuan, what about Zhou Jiamu?" Shi Ruofei said, "Is it Xiaoyou's previous name?"

"Maybe." Shi Nanchuan smiled, patted his son's shoulder, "Go to bed early."

When Shi Ruofei went upstairs, he saw that the lights in Zhou You's house were still on, he wanted Zhou You to rest earlier, but after thinking about it, he still didn't talk to him, and went to sleep by himself.

That night, Zhou You couldn't fall asleep.

Why is Liang Jiayu here?How long has he been like this?Why did I meet him again?Will he tell others?Has he gone?

Zhou You tossed and turned on the bed, as if a seed had been sprinkled in his heart, and now the seed was about to germinate, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the morning that he slowly fell asleep, and the vision of the past in his mind faded a little bit, and then became vivid again in his dream.

So... Liang Jiayu has been looking for himself.

However, he was obviously "dead", why did he find a "dead person"?

Zhou You slept until the afternoon. When he woke up, his head was heavy and aching.He opened the window and woke up when he heard the sound of the waves.Zhou You went downstairs and fried two poached eggs for himself, sandwiched them in bread to make a sandwich.There was no one in the house again, only him left, wandering in the empty world.

He misses Liang Jiayu.

But he never expected to see him again.

Zhou You sat in front of the dining table, leaned on the table, and stuck the glass water cup to his ear, the coolness could not cool his restlessness.

In the evening, both Shi Nanchuan and Shi Ruofei came back, and everything returned to calm.

Liang Jiayu didn't knock on the door again.Zhou You kept staring at the door while eating, he thought, if Liang Jiayu came again, he would open the door, there was nothing to be afraid of, it was just a meeting.

Maybe they could talk about the past, he didn't blame them, he didn't hate anyone.

But he didn't come.

He seems to have disappeared again.The Liang Jiayu I met that afternoon seemed to be just a dream of Zhou You.Before the dream fully woke up, the dream had already disintegrated again.

After a while, Zhou You received a package.

Shi Ruofei helped him remove the courier bag and asked curiously, "What did you buy?"

Zhou You was also a little confused, and said, "I didn't buy anything, and I don't even have a Taobao account."

This is true, he has lived here for three years, he has never bought a single thing, and he is wearing Shi Nanchuan's old clothes from before.Shi Ruofei shrugged, and Zhou You opened the courier box, which contained several Yanni albums.

"Do you listen to piano music?" Shi Ruofei asked.

Zhou You's heart was beating very fast suddenly, and the records in his hand seemed a little hot, so he quickly put them on the table.

Shi Ruofei laughed and said, "What's the matter? Don't you want to listen?"

"I have no idea……"

Shi Ruofei has a record player at home, he opens it, and the sound of music flows out slowly.

"TheEndOfAugust..." Shi Ruofei said, "The end of August."

He remembered, it was this song.He heard it in Liang Jiayu's room, Liang Jiayu hugged him and twirled in the room, it was such a song.

Turning off the record player, Zhou You took two ice creams from the refrigerator, one for each of Shi Ruofei.

Shi Ruofei ate half of it, and suddenly asked, "Why didn't you see that man?"

Zhou Youdao: "Because, I like him very much."

Shi Ruofei's eyes widened slightly, and he spoke incoherently, "Ah... then you, then you..."

"But something bad happened between us, I can't like him anymore." Zhou You said silently.

"Does the family disagree?" Shi Ruofei pretended to be deep and authentic.

"Yeah." Zhou You nodded seriously, "My family disagrees, I was beaten half to death, that's why I came here."

"But...but he seemed really sad. I beat him and he didn't fight back. Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit someone you like."

"Ok, I know."

"Then you... that's it?"

"Yes, there is no way." Zhou You smiled.

Shi Ruofei finished eating the ice cream, thought for a while, and said, "Well, after I go to college, he might not come."

This summer, Zhou You has received many packages one after another, sometimes it is a novel, sometimes it is a Blu-ray movie, sometimes it is a bouquet of flowers, sometimes it is a collection of poems, and sometimes it is a letter.

Liang Jiayu sent him something, as if he was addicted.

At the end of August, Zhou Xinyuan received a photo album.

The first page opened, it was a white boat with fish, beach and sea behind it.The last page is him.

That was him a few years ago, dozing off while sitting on a chair with his head tilted. I don't know who took the photo secretly.

Zhou You put all these things together, and he didn't go out for the whole summer.

Shi Ruofei is going to college, Zhou You made some sandwiches for him to eat with him.After Shi Ruofei left, Zhou You liked to sit in front of the window and watch the sea.

One day, he saw a white boat circling on the sea. After thinking about it for a long time, he realized that he had seen it in the photo album.

That was Liang Jiayu's boat.
