Bayberry popping beads

Wen Yu never doubted that he liked Shi Can.

After leaving his hometown, cutting off contact with his classmates, and putting himself in a completely unfamiliar environment, this was the first time he figured out the ins and outs.Whether it's jealous or possessive for a girl's love letter, why does it make people feel sad and happy?

Because he likes Cui Shican.

It snows in Philadelphia in winter, ice piles pile up on the roadside, and the north wind is like a knife. It takes a lot of courage to go out.Wen Yu couldn’t get used to it in the first year when he went out, his hands were frostbitten, he hid in the apartment and took leave of absence from class, he leaned against the window to watch the heavy snow outside, clutching the stove, thinking quietly, it turns out that there is a sound when snowflakes fall .

His wish to see the snow came true, but he didn't expect to be alone.

My hometown is south of the Yangtze River, and it rarely snows in winter. Even if there is, it is poetically covered with evergreen banyan trees and camphor trees, with a thin layer of white, more like frost.

Wen Yu took a few photos, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to post them on Moments to show off. After searching around, he realized that he had lost his WeChat account.

According to Dad, he came to change the environment and forget some unpleasant things-even though these things were intricate and their understanding of it was very different.So Wen Yu was more resolute than ever, cut off the phone card, deleted the contacts, and let go of the worrying troubles, leaving only the necessary contact with the family.

After more than half a year alone, taking exams, attending classes, socializing step by step, and even going out for picnics and hiking with new friends, Wen Yu had to admit that he used to feel that he had passed a hurdle to grow up.

But finally felt lonely at this moment.

The photo of heavy snow on the phone was not sent out in the end, and Wen Yu deleted it the next day.He packed up his things and went to school, and took his American classmates who had played with him for several months to complain that he was too careless to frostbite his hands.

"It's my first time here." Wen Yu said, putting on the gloves again.

"Take you to a good place!" The young man smirked and grabbed his wrist.

The snow is clear and the sun is almost blinding.

Wen Yu was dragged by him to a certain corner of the school, thinking indescribably in his heart that the ground was full of autumn scenery, full of spring breeze, and summer torrential rain. He was also taken to the secret base like this.

Later, the classmate who took him to see the pine forest after the snow became Wen Yu's first real boyfriend. They stayed together for a long time, more than a year, until they had to break up because of the busy internship, which barely counted as a good reunion. scattered.He saw Wen Yu's orientation, approached boldly, took his hand, and kissed him.

The winter in Philadelphia is too long, and warmth is rare, which makes people easily addicted if they are not careful.

As a friend, Han Mo has heard about this relationship and said that he can accept this step abroad, which is a good thing anyway, but don't worry too much about gains and losses.

At that time Wen Yu smiled and said, "How is that possible."

"How is it impossible?" Han Mo sent the message quickly, "How can this be your first love, right? Have you never heard that sentence, first love is easy to get hurt."

"..." Wen Yu was stunned for a while, and then returned his facial expressions of goodbye.

Han Mo narrowly sent a dog's head: "Unless you secretly had a puppy love in China before."

Wen Yu subconsciously retorted: "I haven't."

After refuting, he sat for a while, fell down on the bed, stared at a lamp hanging from the ceiling, and suddenly his eyes were sore.Turning over, Wen Yu rubbed his eyes, feeling thirsty and uncomfortable all over, so he had to sit up again, touched the water glass with his fingers, but took the cigarette case by the bedside to light a cigarette.

The mint flavor is mixed with a hint of sweet and sour bayberry, which blend together and are inseparable.

Repelling is useless, forgetting is useless, and deliberately ignoring is useless. There is always a way to permeate everything, and it can always moisten things silently.

tortured him physically and mentally.

It didn't take long for a cigarette, Wen Yu pressed the cigarette butt, and a cloud of ashes fell by his feet.When he wiped the corners of his eyes, there were water marks all over them.

God knows that he always thinks of Cui Shican at such times, and then suffers a lot, even though he can't find a photo of himself and Shican together, there is no trace of the other party.

Forget about it, he said to himself, Shi Can likes girls, and he won't even come to watch the concert with you.

but--

It was snowing heavily outside the window, Wen Yu covered his face sadly.

But Shi Can was his first love.

Like immature plums, they are so sour that they fall into the soil after a heavy rain.

Wen Yu slammed his head back against the wall, his whole body shivered, and he woke up from the long dream immediately.With sleepy eyes, he first instinctively checked the clothes on his body—short sleeves, not in winter, not in the United States.

His eyes were a little bloodshot, red like a rabbit, and he stared wide-eyed to look around.

The white coats are coming and going, and there is a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, not the mint fragrance in the dream.Wen Yu felt relieved, he sniffed his finger to make sure that there was still a smell of smoke on it, as if he had found the reason for the strange dream.

Since going to California for an internship, Wen Yu never dreamed about his first tough winter in Philadelphia, let alone the one where he cried because of Shi Can.The dream this time was too real, Wen Yu blamed it on the fact that he had been busy with work recently and had relapsed into smoking addiction, plus he met Cui Shican, it was almost a matter of course.

It's all over after all.Wen Yu comforted herself in this way, calmed down her rapid heartbeat, and let out a long breath.

He thinks that he is invincible, at least this level cannot be easily hurt.

"Hey, are you awake?" A man in a white coat paused when he walked in front of him, it was Shang Qiu, and he smiled, "But you can fall asleep even sitting here, you are amazing."

Just as Wen Yu was about to say that he was too tired, Shang Qiu interrupted him with a wave of his hand, pointing to the treatment room: "There is still a queue inside, wait a little longer if you are not in a hurry, and you can leave today if you have something to do."

"No rush..." Wen Yu said, startled by his hoarse voice, "I'm here now, I'll work overtime again in a few days."

"Children nowadays work so hard when they first start working." Shang Qiu smiled and gave him a cup of Luo Han Guo tea, "Then you drink some of this, and I will call you when I have a seat later."

Before Wen Yu had time to agree, a dissatisfied voice cut in from the side: "Shang Qiu, what about me?"

"You what?" Shang Qiu looked at the man helplessly, "You should wait too."

He turned briskly into the consultation room, Wen Yu took a sip of the cup of tea, only to find that there was someone waiting with him on the bench, and immediately began to look at him very curiously—not to blame him, this person He is even less likely to come to a Chinese medicine clinic than him.

The young man at 26 has curly hair and a small braid at the back of his head. The tail of a rabbit is so long that the hair will be fluffed up at the slightest bit, making the whole hairstyle messy, but it looks a bit carefully designed and deliberate.

He has a good-looking side face, sharp jaw line but not aggressive, slender eyes, squinted like a lazy fox, and the corners of his mouth are raised.He has a very youthful appearance, and is not naive. Wen Yu has no reason to think that he is like Peter Pan who grew up in a honeypot, ignorant of world affairs, playing games in the world, and doing everything as if he was playing.

"What are you looking at?" The young man who was dozing off asked.

Wen Yu was not embarrassed when he was discovered: "You don't look like someone who has a problem and goes to a Chinese medicine practitioner."

The man chuckled, "You're not like that either."

Wen Yu: "What's the name?"

"Xia Fengyi." He gave his name and said the specific two words, without the slightest sense of being offended.

"Good name." Wen Yu thought the words were beautiful, and praised them casually.

Xia Fengyi, however, was noncommittal: "What's the matter, my dad started it blindly, and my mother didn't know until I got the household registration. The two of them had a fight because of this, and they almost didn't fight. In the end, they couldn't change it."

Wen Yu asked suspiciously, "Why?"

Xia Fengyi said: "My mother said that it's not appropriate to have such a name because I will have to please others in the future."

Wen Yu laughed loudly: "What kind of reason is that!"

Xia Fengyi was not annoyed, her ankles were folded on her knees, she held her chin with a smile, and her gaze fell somewhere pointedly: "When I was a child, I didn't take it seriously, since I was a child, others came to please me. But now I grow up But I feel that three years old is old, my mother is really sharp-eyed."

There was something in his words, Wen Yu felt that he had just met him, so there was no need to get to the bottom of it.Leaning on the back of the chair, Wen Yu took out his mobile phone, filled out all the news, and sighed irritably.

"What's the matter?" Xia Fengyi smiled and turned to look at him, "The leader told you to work overtime?"

Wen Yu glanced at him sideways: "Yes, but I am the leader, and now I have decided that the employees will work overtime today."

Xia Fengyi was taken aback for a moment, and gave a thumbs up: "Awesome."

Several doctors and nurses in the consulting room were so busy that they didn't touch the floor. When Wen Yu saw Cui Shican come out, he only had time to say hello to him.When the little nurse called Wen Yu, he glanced at his watch, and quickly estimated in his mind whether he would still be able to catch up with the meal.

Having done several physical treatments, Wen Yu has a clear understanding of the process.Acupuncture and moxibustion would not be so unbearable, he lay face down, while emptying himself, while racing against time to rest——The weird dream outside the clinic was too real, he couldn't wait to get another one, to wash away the difficulty of distinguishing reality from reality flustered.

The consultation room was not as quiet as imagined. The nurses chatted while waiting for the acupuncture time, and the patients and doctors chatted about everyday life, all of which were mixed in the air that was smelled of moxa sticks.

"Shang Qiu, my shoulders are very sore recently. I haven't been here for a few days and it's like this. What's the matter?" A familiar voice came into my ears, and Wen Yu's eyelids moved. Xia Fengyi.

Shang Qiu's voice didn't fluctuate, it was still gentle and gentle: "Didn't you just see it at the doctor's?"

Xia Fengyi laughed a few times and lowered his posture: "Then you can help me take a look."

What Wen Yu said later, Wen Yu didn't really hear it. The little nurse in charge came over to pull out the needle, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Cui! Stop fishing there, massage here!" Followed by whispering such things as being so busy. Feeling fish in the air, Wen Yu felt like laughing, his eyes were crooked, but unfortunately no one could see.

Not long after, Cui Shican walked to the clinic bed, patted the back of Wen Yu's head lightly, and said hello: "Hi."

"What a coincidence." Wen Yu replied dutifully.

He was originally supposed to be massaged by Shang Qiu. Shi Can was just a junior apprentice in the clinic, and any nurse was more professional than him, but Wen Yu tried it once and asked Shang Qiu in private if he could let him come.He was full of selfishness, maybe Shang Qiu could see it, maybe Shang Qiu felt that he was reducing his workload, so he agreed happily without saying anything.

Wen Yu couldn't open his mouth, he just wanted to have more contact with Shi Can, and it didn't matter what it was.

As the off-duty time approached, the number of people in the consultation room gradually decreased, and the nurses and doctors were basically free.Wen Yu's side is quiet, but the bed opposite is much more lively. Xia Fengyi has needles stuck in his back, and can still make a few nurses tremble.

"You can tell." Wen Yu joked softly.

He was just talking to himself, but Shi Can unexpectedly responded, "Isn't it, it's like this every time I come here."

After being spoken to, Wen Yu suddenly became energetic. He instinctively wanted to stand up and chat with Shi Can, but was slapped on the treatment bed.Shi Can's voice fell into his ears with a smile: "Don't make trouble!"

Wen Yu said "Oh", and lay down again, allowing him to pinch and press on his back: "Isn't it the first time for him to come?"

"It used to be often. Before you came, he didn't move for a few days, but recently he came here again." Shi Can pursed her lips, and her voice became quieter, lest others would hear her.

Wen Yu: "Drunkards don't want to be in bars... Oh, it hurts."

"It's good to feel pain, it means you're tired." Shi Can said coldly.

Wen Yu groaned softly: "But it hurts, Shi Can—"

"...Okay, then I'll be gentle." Shi Can compromised.

Cui Shican was pressing his waist, loosening his muscles meticulously.The sequelae of sitting in the office appeared at this time, while he pressed, Wen Yu hummed, unable to tell whether it was comfortable or uncomfortable.

"I must have fallen in love with one of your beautiful sisters here... What do you think?" He said, looking sideways at several nurses in uniform in the hallway, he felt that each of them had delicate eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't help moving his fingers to take pictures. Shi Can, "Do you like anything? Xia Fengyi runs here every day."

Shi Can didn't reply, Wen Yu let out another cry of pain when he squeezed, and then said slowly: "No."

I don't know which question before and after signaling him.

Wen Yu: "I didn't like it, or did you not like it?...Hey!"

As soon as the words were finished, Cui Shican stretched his arms for him, and Wen Yu heard the sound of "crackling" from his bones, and swallowed all the words, feeling pain and happiness.

Knowing that it was over at this point, Wen Yu hurriedly got up and sat down, ignoring the tossing about inside and out just now, and pulled Shi Can not to let him go.But he didn't change his shoes, he sat on the edge of the bed and winked at Shi Shi.

"... so what?" Cui Shican asked him, with a faint look in his dark eyes.

"Do you know who he is looking for?" Wen Yu approached him, whispering, "Tell me, I'm so curious."

Shi Can was helpless: "Why are you curious? Anyway, you didn't come to see me."

Originally, it was also other people's privacy, and I was curious for a while, but I didn't really want to get to the bottom of it.Seeing that he refused to talk, Wen Yu put on his shoes in a jerk, and changed the subject: "The marks of scraping and cupping last time haven't disappeared, but the sister nurse said she won't do it for me today—it really has to wait until it disappears." Can it be next time? It's so annoying."

"Not necessarily..." Shi Can said, suddenly startled by Wen Yu's actions, "What are you doing!"

"I'll show you." Wen Yu said naturally, leaning under his nose.

He pulled the neckline to reveal a large area of ​​the back of his neck, his fair skin extended to the invisible place under the clothes, and the purple blood bruises were shocking.Wen Yu is the young master, even though he always ate roadside food stalls with him when he was a student, it can't change his life of not touching the spring water with his fingers, and his skin is tender and tender.

But Cui Shican only glanced at it briefly, and immediately averted his eyes and dared not look any more.The voices around him announced the joy of getting off work, he stood where he was, and quickly pressed the back of his hand to his cheek.

Hot, a little sweaty.

Maybe because the massage was too strenuous, he stood all afternoon after all.

"When will it go away? The assistant still laughed at me yesterday if I was domestically abused by my girlfriend." Wen Yu frowned and said, at least he let go of his fingers hooking his collar.

Shi Can inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief: "It depends on one's physique, who knew you were so..."

Wen Yu raised his eyelids, and looked at him with black and white eyes: "What about me?"

"Squeamish." Shi Can smiled, and for some reason, the hand that touched her cheek rubbed Wen Yu's hair, "Just wait, you'll have to cup it after a while, and you're about to be domestically abused." It's been a long time."

"Get out!" Wen Yu rolled his eyes at him, but didn't avoid rubbing his head.
