It's better to be nostalgic

04

Jiang Yunian returned home with a dozen beers.

After being hit one after another on the road to recover Pei Jingyan, he was really overwhelmed. He held a beer bottle on the balcony and watched the night in Beijing. There are countless streets here filled with his memories. He recalled every detail, but when he opened his eyes, the reality rushed towards him like sea water at four o'clock in the morning, making him feel cold all over.

There are still two days left in the vacation the team gave him. The film in his hand intends to hit the European Film Festival Awards. The production team also specially hired foreigners to optimize the subtitles in the later stage to avoid unacceptable translation. Several manuscripts in English came over and asked him to compare them and choose one or two for reference.

Jiang Yunian was leaning next to the typewriter in the study, watching the manuscripts being printed out one by one. Although he did not study abroad and his English grades were not good at the beginning, he can now read all English manuscripts very proficiently. The original movie with subtitles is all thanks to Pei Jingyan, who led Jiang Yunian to open the door to the new world during his sophomore year of high school.

It stands to reason that someone like Jiang Yunian has average grades but extremely high EQ. He actively participated in various activities in high school. The goal he has set for himself all along is to be admitted to an ordinary key university. What major is not important, what is important The most important thing is to actively participate in club activities and try to gain some social experience.

But Jiang Yunian's family hoped that he could study abroad, especially Jiang's mother saw that her son had a cheerful personality when he grew up, so she felt more at ease and wanted him to go out to see the outside world. Jiang Yunian has always been in a casual state. After all, living abroad For a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, he is not completely unattractive, but he must pass the language barrier when going abroad. Jiang Yunian feels a headache when he thinks about it. After being with him for several months, he couldn't take it anymore, so he had to compromise and go to the TOEFL tutoring institution that Jiang's mother had signed up for him.

Jiang's mother enrolled him in the small class. There were only four students in the whole class. He was a few minutes late when he went there that day. He walked forward from the back door of the classroom and saw three round heads, which can be roughly judged to be two girls and one boy. , the two girls sat very close to each other, whispering from time to time, they must have known each other, so he sat directly next to the other boy.

Both of them were shocked while looking at each other. The teacher asked after seeing their reactions, "The two students seem to know each other?"

Jiang Yunian patted Pei Jingyan on the shoulder and said, "We don't just know each other, we are also at the same table at school."

The teacher nodded, handed the self-test form to Jiang Yunian, and said, "Then let's take a self-test first to see how good you are. Your tablemate is pretty good."

When Jiang Yunian saw the densely packed English words, his head grew big instantly. Pei Jingyan looked at his expression from the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth raised to draw a very shallow arc. It was so interesting to see the usually majestic student council president deflated.

Because Jiang Yunian's self-assessment level is too low, the teacher sees that he and Pei Jingyan are at the same table, so he asks Pei Jingyan to help him more. Pei Jingyan's words of refusal are almost on the verge of his lips, but seeing Jiang Yunian squinting and smiling at him , That sentence of embarrassment was swallowed back.

Jiang Yunian was busy with the New Year's Eve party recently, so he didn't have a chance to talk to Pei Jingyan at school. Since then, the English tutoring time on weekends has become the time he communicates with Pei Jingyan the most.

Pei Jingyan always liked to sleep on his stomach during recess, Jiang Yunian didn't know until a long time later that he often suffered from insomnia at night during that time, and could barely fall asleep during the day.

The two little girls who were tutoring together always discussed their favorite idols, and Jiang Yunian didn’t know any boy group members. One day, one of the girls said that Pei Jingyan looked a lot like a new boy group member. Jiang Yunian saw it. They dismissed the photos they brought, and said: "This person is not as good-looking as Pei Jingyan, Pei Jingyan is much more beautiful than him just because of his eyes."

The girl curled her lips dissatisfied, and turned to discuss with her friends. Jiang Yunian looked at Pei Jingyan who was leaning on the table, and saw his slender and thick eyelashes trembling occasionally, one by one, which made his heart itch.

It's not that he hasn't observed his facial features secretly, but no matter how many times he has watched him, he still marvels at how good-looking he is. If he wasn't too cold and restrained, he would have let him join the drama club as a young actor.

But it's fine for him to keep a low profile like this, as if Pei Jingyan could only be watched by him this way, Jiang Yunian himself shuddered at such an exclusive desire, he just went through a class in a daze like this, and at the entrance of the institution when school was over Another car stopped to pick up Pei Jingyan, and he tentatively asked, "Pei Pei, where do you live?"

Pei Jingyan frowned and complained, "I told you not to call me that."

Jiang Yunian directly pulled his shoulders over and said, "Otherwise, what would I call you, Xiaojing? Xiaoyan?"

Pei Jingyan ignored him, put his backpack on his back, and said, "My home is far away."

Jiang Yunian: "My home is also far away, you and I will take the bus together."

The two walked and talked, and when they walked out of the institution, they realized that it was snowing. Pei Jingyan liked snow since he was a child, and he reached out to catch the generous snowflakes, and told the driver who came to pick him up that he still had something to do and he wanted to go back by himself. I couldn't help the young master's acting like a baby, so I had to drive away alone.

Jiang Yunian, who was standing next to him, stared blankly. This was the first time he saw Pei Jingyan acting like a baby to others. His voice was soft and sticky. With his face, it seemed that he was not a high-cold person before. If it exists, this should be the correct way for Pei Jingyan to open it.

Seeing him in a daze, Pei Jingyan shook his arm and said, "Come on, don't you want to take me on the bus?"

Jiang Yunian nodded quickly and said, "I thought you were going to reject me again."

Pei Jingyan curled her lips and whispered, "When did I reject you again?"

Jiang Yunian didn't come back to him again, he walked towards the bus station with one hand on his shoulder, passing a snack bar on the side of the road, Pei Jingyan stood beside him and swallowed his saliva, Jiang Yunian looked at him and asked, "Want to eat? "

Pei Jingyan nodded, looked at the hot dog in the oven, then at Jiang Yunian, and said, "I want to eat a hot dog, but I have no money."

Jiang Yunian: "Your family is so rich, but you have no money."

Pei Jingyan twitched her lips and said, "Just say whether you want to borrow me or not."

Jiang Yunian was so cute by the way he pouted, even though Pei Jingyan looked very righteous, in Jiang Yunian's eyes, he seemed to be just a kitten that kept blowing fur, wagging its tail and begging for food from him.

He gave him a piece worth ten yuan, and Pei Jingyan bought two hot dogs, and divided them among them for Jiang Yunian, saying, "I treat you to eat."

Jiang Yunian took the bamboo stick, and then casually glanced at Pei Jingyan, because it was snowing, Pei Jingyan's lips were red from the cold, he must be afraid of getting hot, so he kept blowing, and then bit the top of the hot dog, There were snowflakes floating on the tip of his frozen pink nose, even his fingernails were pink, his lips were red and his teeth were white, like a doll.

Standing in the wind and snow, Jiang Yunian saw/hardened in an instant.

Even though he was sitting on the bus later, no matter how he told himself that what happened just now was just an illusion, Pei Jingyan seemed determined not to let him go, closed his eyes and fell asleep as soon as he got on the bus, his little head kept pushing towards his shoulder Leaning up, Jiang Yunian only felt a fire burning on his shoulders, neither sitting nor standing.

After a long time, Jiang Yunian finally admitted that it was the first time he was moved by Pei Jingyan, in their first winter.

The first snow in Beijing.
