On how to pursue a Buddhist teacher

"You don't know about it." Qi Yuan looked at him in surprise.

Qi Liang forced a smile, "Know what? I didn't understand what you just said."

"It's Xu Baibi's notebook. It's precious. I didn't let people touch it before. Didn't you want to use it for review that time? Did you ask me to make a copy for you? I saw that you were posted on the back of the notebook." photos." Seeing Qi Liang's expression getting more and more frightening, Qi Yuan's voice gradually became quieter.

Qi Liang's heart was already full of waves, and his face was still hardened, pretending to be disdainful and contemptuous

"What's wrong with the photo? I also have your photo, so you can spread rumors that I have a crush on you?"

Qi Yuan muttered softly, "Then you wouldn't paste my photo on the notebook."

Qi Liang stood up suddenly from the sofa.

"Hey, don't worry, I think it's because I'm thinking too much, and I think it's true. You say you're a man, and he's prettier than you. What are you trying to do?"

Qi Liang ignored him,

"I have to get up early for class tomorrow, so I'm leaving first."

"Then I'll take it to you."

"No need, it's not far from my house, I can just walk back." Qi Liang strode out, and turned back after walking a few steps, he looked at Qi Yuan, and warned: "Don't talk nonsense about this. "

"Of course, who do you take me for?"

The bar was crowded with people, Qi Liang passed through the crowd and went straight to the door, bumping into several people in the middle.

A man dressed in a famous brand walked up to Qi Yuan, turned his head and looked at Qi Liang's back, "Is that Qi Shuai? Didn't you call me to catch him? Why did you just leave like this? I was in a panic, and I called He ignored me too."

Qi Yuan looked at Qi Liang's fleeing back, smiled, picked up the wine glass, and said meaningfully: "Qi Shuai is worrying now, let's play together."

At eleven o'clock in the evening, many people are already asleep, but the night in the city center has just begun. The lights are feasting, the money is drunk, and the darkness hides all the busy work during the day, the struggle of getting what you want and the pain of everything going wrong. They all hide in the night, and the colorful neon lights forge a dreamy perfect world, giving people the illusion that everything can be realized.

But this is a lie, because the truth will eventually emerge, and no one can deceive themselves forever.

The street lamps stretched people's shadows very long, and the dim light became a filter for memories. Qi Liang suddenly remembered many things.

In the last month before graduation, he encountered many things.The world at that time was in chaos. His parents, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, his younger brother, who had moved out of the house, and the quarrel with Xu Baibi, all these things came at once and almost overwhelmed him, so that many details were ignored.

As an excellent student who is stable at the top of the grade in every exam, Xu Baibi's notes are used as positive textbooks by the teachers of various subjects to show off in many ways, and even printed them out for everyone to study. Xu Baibi didn't respond to this. The teacher asked him to ask for it, and he was nonchalant Not to mention giving it away, there is only a dark green notebook, no matter who borrows it from him, he has never agreed.

Later, there were rumors in the school that Xu Baibi's notebook was the essence of his sorting. Qi Liang had no interest in such unfounded rumors, not to mention that he felt that Xu Baibi relied on his natural superior IQ and Work hard, shutting down a broken laptop is nothing.

But occasionally he would be curious about what was in this notebook. Every time he asked Xu Baibi, the other party would cover it up, and he joked, "It can't be something inappropriate for children." It turned red all of a sudden, and he left without saying a word, which made him suspicious, maybe it's really something like the Eighteen Bans.

Later he didn't dare to ask again.

Before the last mock exam, he borrowed a notebook from Xu Baibi.

"It's all on my desk, take it yourself."

He took all five or six notebooks to copy. Qi Yuan gave him strange eyes when he returned them, but Qi Liang didn't think much about it at the time. After turning a few pages, I found that it was just a summary of some knowledge points, and I felt very boring.

However, when he returned to the classroom, Xu Baibi looked flustered and snatched the notebook from him.

"Have you seen it?!" He asked anxiously.

Seeing that Xu Baibi became like this because of a broken notebook, Qi Liang couldn't help being a little angry, cheapskate, who cares about your broken notebook.

He put all the notebooks in his hand on the table, and said indifferently, "I've read them all."

At that time, Qi Liang had too many worries in his heart, so he didn't notice Xu Baibi's reaction.

However, at this moment, under the dim street lamps, in this silent night, after ten years, the original situation suddenly became clear. In the classroom with no one in the afternoon, the electric fan creaking and spinning above the classroom , the test paper blown by the wind, the problem-solving steps on the blackboard that had not been erased in time, the lunch break bell rang unexpectedly.

Then, he raised his head and saw the boy in front of him, wearing a school uniform, with a handsome face, that was Xu Baibi. After hearing his answer, the boy's face turned pale, it was an expression of being overwhelmed by despair , as if mixed with unspeakable pain, is an expression often seen on the faces of drowning victims.

What overwhelmed him?Is it the love that young people hide in their hearts alone?

Qi Liang didn't dare to think about it, didn't dare to recall it, he hurried home, opened the door, the house that Xu Baibi had tidied up was clean and tidy, and all the things that had been deliberately ignored came to mind again.

Qi Liang could only hide in the bedroom, lying on the bed, he closed his eyes, feeling absurd and unreasonable,

what am i thinkingam I crazy?how can that be possible?

……

The next morning, when Mr. Qi showed up at the school, the dark circles on his face were very noticeable. He seemed to be floating when he walked, like a zombie who had just escaped from a thousand-year-old grave, walking through the campus with a pale face.

The grade director was startled when he saw him like this, "Mr. Qi, are you okay?"

Qi Liang raised his head from his seat, "It's okay."

The grade director looked complicated, "If it's okay, come to my office, I have something to tell you."

Qi Liang went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water, and then went to the director's office.

"You mean?" Qi Liang frowned, "He Xin from our class has a puppy love?"

"When a boy of this age gets closer to a female classmate, it is inevitable that some people will make a fuss. It may not be because there is something real."

The director sighed, and took out a letter from the table, "I hope I made a mistake, you can read it yourself."

The envelope was pink, with a heart on it, and the words on it looked like a girl's handwriting. Qi Liang took out the letter paper inside, unfolded it, and read it hastily.

"A love letter for He Xin?" I didn't see that this kid was usually not very popular, but he was quite popular.

After Qi Liang finished reading, he smiled and put the letter back, "Director, I think this letter is a girl expressing her affection. It's normal in puberty."

The director widened his eyes and looked at Qi Liang angrily, as if he was the one who got caught writing the love letter,

"Normal? This is the graduation class! How can I not focus on my studies?!"

Qi Liang looked at him innocently.

The director sighed, "Originally, the parents must be looking for this kind of thing, but this girl who wrote the love letter is a top student in the first class. Last time, she got the first place in the whole grade in the mock exam. Now it seems that she is very likely to break through. As for the champion of the city, she is also a girl, based on this consideration, she cannot be dealt with directly."

"I hope you can talk to He Xin in your class in private, guide him well, and tell him the importance of the college entrance examination."

Persimmons are picky and soft, and students with poor grades start from the beginning.Qi Liang had experienced this truth firsthand when he was in school, and although he felt that the director's idea was ridiculous, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"I'll talk to He Xin after class, don't worry."

In the middle of the second class and the third class in the morning, there was a break between two and 10 minutes. The boys took advantage of this time to go to the playground to play ball. Xu Wang rushed out to grab the basket after class .

He Xin watched most of the people in the class disperse at once, and sat silently in his seat for a while.

The classmate walked in and took a look at him, "He Xin, don't you want to go out to play?"

"Don't stare at the book all day, you can't see the flowers."

He shook his head, "No."

The other party had no choice but to leave bored.

"He Xin." He turned his head and saw Qi Liang waving outside.

"Director Xu gave me this letter this morning." Holding the pink envelope, Qi Liang tried hard to think about how to word it so as not to arouse the boy's disgust, although he felt that his behavior was quite annoying .

Beat mandarin ducks with a stick, alas, who made him a middle school teacher.

"I didn't mean to criticize you, I just wanted to ask, what do you think?"

He Xin didn't realize it at first, but when he realized it, his expression changed. He sneered and said:

"You don't have to be so tactful, just tell me not to contact Xia Yuan in the future, right? Or ask me to write a self-criticism. Now that I'm so nervous about studying, you won't ask me to suspend class and reflect on it."

Qi Liang didn't expect the boy to have such a big reaction, so he froze for a moment,

"I didn't mean to punish you."

"Then what do you mean?" He Xin looked at him impatiently, "I don't understand why we can't fall in love, we can fall in love after the college entrance examination, but not now, it's not because it will affect my studies, because my grades are not good enough .”

"But why! We didn't do anything bad, and we didn't engage in homosexuality, so why are you chasing us like criminals?!"

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. The last two sentences hit Qi Liang's heart, and he stood where he was, suddenly speechless.
