[Gao Qiao] yesterday once more

In the next few days, Gao Yingjie did not see Qiao Yifan.

The summer break is here, most people are leaving one after another, the club is getting more and more deserted, and you can't meet a few familiar faces when you walk in the corridor.Not to mention Qiao Yifan, Gao Yingjie didn't even see the aunt sweeping the floor.

But it's okay not to see him - Gao Yingjie couldn't even sort out his own thoughts, let alone how to face him.

He should be angry.He should blame him.However, the fact is that the only thing he feels is blankness and emptiness, like a deep and dark black hole, without a ray of light or sound.

In the vast darkness, a question emerged: How much does he really know about Yifan?How much does he know about the team that Yifan wants to join?

How strong is Yifan?What habit does he have in cooperating with others?

When his reason returned, Gao Yingjie suddenly realized that it was completely normal for Qiao Yifan not to choose Tiny Herb.In this place of Tiny Herb, how many memories are left to Yifan that are worthy of nostalgia?No one intends to suppress and exclude, but Tiny Herb is such a strict team, it may be suitable for Qiao Yifan now, but it must not be suitable for him in the past.

Perhaps Tiny Herb and Qiao Yifan really are destined to each other.

For a few moments, Gao Yingjie even felt that maybe in this place, apart from himself, Yifan had no attachment at all.

Then he suddenly remembered - Yifan fell to this point in Tiny Herb, partly because of himself.

Gao Yingjie bit his lower lip, his expression dazed and bitter.

In the final analysis... What position does he have to let Yifan stay for him?

Looking back on my momentary slip of the tongue that day, it almost seems like an impulsive joke.

What is the self who said such a thing?friend? ——What kind of friend will ignore the other party's mood, ignore the other party's future, and willfully want to tie a friend to him?

He stared blankly at the refrigerator in the convenience store, but was suddenly cut off by a worried voice: "Xiao Gao?"

Gao Yingjie suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly turned around: "Little, little brother!"

"Don't you feel so cold standing here?" Liu Xiaobie complained, with a helpless expression on his face, he took a can of juice from the freezer and handed it to him, "Here, I'll treat you."

"Ah?" Gao Yingjie was taken aback, and quickly waved his hands, "No, no need for Brother Bie, I'm also... not very thirsty."

"I know," Liu Xiaobie gave him the juice, "but I heard that when you're in a bad mood, you should add something sweet."

"..."

"Still thinking about Xiao Qiao?" Liu Xiaobie sighed.The child looked devastated, almost everything was written on his face.But it's no wonder—recalling the situation that day, Liu Xiaobie felt mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say—the situation between the two of them made everyone feel uncomfortable.

Gao Yingjie just lowered his head in silence, followed Liu Xiaobie to the cashier, and avoided answering: "...Brother, when are you going home?"

"In five days, the technical department has a few pieces of equipment under construction, and I want to wait for confirmation before leaving," Liu Xiaobie replied casually, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I heard that the cleaning person said that small Joe is leaving tomorrow, are you going to see him off?"

"...?!!!!!!" Gao Yingjie suddenly raised his head to look at him with a shocked expression.

Liu Xiaobie was also taken aback: "No - you don't know?"

"I, I haven't turned on my phone or computer for the past two days, and I haven't seen him—" Gao Yingjie muttered in astonishment, but his eyes panicked, "Bie, where did you hear that?!"

Liu Xiaobie was a little caught off guard: "Just——it was mentioned in the chat when Uncle Chen came to clean my room yesterday. It seems that Xiao Qiao told Uncle Chen that he changed the ticket for an earlier train, and the train for tomorrow morning , so the hygienist can go to his room to clean up from tomorrow—Hello? Xiao Gao?!"

Gao Yingjie couldn't care about anything else, so he turned around and ran away.

He ran all the way back to his room in Tiny Herb's dormitory, and immediately turned on his computer and phone, waiting for it to turn on in panic and anxiety, even his fingers were trembling.

In the past two days, his mood has reached the bottom, and he didn't know how to face Yifan, so he simply turned off his mobile phone and computer, and spent his days in a daze, never thinking... never thinking...

The boot notification tone finally sounded, and Gao Yingjie opened QQ and text messages the fastest in his life, and saw the message from Qiao Yifan.It's a long, long letter of apology, and there's news that I'm leaving by train tomorrow.

Sent time, 1:03 AM two days ago.

Gao Yingjie's heart was suddenly drenched with ice water.

None of that mattered anymore, and now he had only one thought in bold and capital letters: he was leaving.Yifan is leaving me.

This can't be called panic - it's just that the sky is falling and the earth is falling, and the whole world is dark.

The letter of apology was very long and sincere, and it was written in Qiao Yifan's most ordinary tone.Numerous small and dense details are intertwined, like a gentle net, leaking the cold sea water, and enveloping people's hearts carefully and carefully.Gao Yingjie's ten fingers holding the phone trembled slightly, and he was already sobbing when he saw half of it.

Yifan.

Yifan.

Yifan.

There is only Qiao Yifan in my memory, the smiling him, the lost him, and the gentle him.

Gao Yingjie was about to lose him.

Gao Yingjie cried for a long time, before he recovered, he casually opened the can of drink on the table and poured it into his mouth.He choked on the first sip, and he managed to concentrate, only to realize that what Liu Xiaobie gave him today was actually fruit wine.

With rabbit-like eye sockets, Gao Yingjie stared at the column of 5% alcohol content for a few seconds, then bit his lip, and poured it down his throat resignedly.

I don't know if Brother Xiaobie did it on purpose or unintentionally...but it doesn't matter.

He doesn't want to care about anything.

After drinking alcohol, the whole person became unconscious, groggy and feverish.The long period of memories of his youth were all projected in his mind, shining through the gaps in the trees as if the summer sun had been cut into pieces, the golden silhouette, there was such a transparent and brilliant light everywhere.

Gao Yingjie floated up and down in this light, a fire seemed to burn from his heart, scorching hot and rolled all over his body.He was in a daze for a while, and then he realized that the heat in his body didn't seem to come from alcohol.The smell of pheromones in the air was more vivid than ever, and the smell of vanilla was so strong it was almost sweet.

...Ah, estrus.Gao Yingjie vaguely remembered that his cycle was indeed these few days... He subconsciously opened the drawer and took out a bottle of Alpha Inhibitor, just as he unscrewed the lid, it suddenly stopped.

A thought suddenly flashed into my mind.

On weekdays, he would never even dare to think about it.

In more than ten hours, Qiao Yifan will leave Tiny Herb and the small world they are in.Time and space will dilute the connection between them, distance them, and gradually turn them into nodding acquaintances, the most common [friends].

friend?The relationship between them can't even be summed up as "best friend". Gao Yingjie simply couldn't tolerate the simple word "friend".Thinking of Yifan having new teammates, a new future, and a new life—a life that has nothing to do with him—Gao Yingjie almost went crazy with panic—fear and jealousy.

He urgently needs a strong relationship, no matter what kind of relationship it is, to tie him and Qiao Yifan together.

He had to cross that line called "friendship," whatever it was he was asked to do.

Gao Yingjie stood up, drank the wine in the can in one go, and threw the empty metal can, along with the bottle of Alpha inhibitor, into the trash can.He walked into the bathroom, washed his face with cold water, and saw his tear-stained face in the mirror.

Cold water trickled down his chin, and he had never felt so confused, or so awake.

After finishing all this with abnormal and detached calmness, Gao Yingjie opened the door, walked to Qiao Yifan's dormitory room, left the key in the room, and left the whole world behind.

Everything that happened after that... just deviated from the normal track.

Qiao Yifan didn't quite understand how he got to this point.As soon as he opened the door, a drunk Gao Yingjie jumped on him, hugged him, begged to bury his head in his neck pitifully, called him "Yifan" over and over again, and asked him why he was drunk To leave without telling him.

Qiao Yifan was taken aback, and quickly helped him into his room, feeling soft and sad in his heart: "I sent you a message, but you didn't reply to me for two days, I thought... I thought you didn't want to talk to me anymore, so I dare not look for you again..."

"How could I not want to talk to you..." Gao Yingjie leaned against his ear, his voice soft because of drunkenness.The corners of his tear-stained eyes were slightly red, and he looked like a very wronged little animal, "I just, I just don't know how to see you, so I haven't turned on my phone for the past two days so I haven't seen you. In your heart, I just Is that unreasonable? Yifan..."

Qiao Yifan was taken aback for a moment, the uneasiness and disappointment of the past few days suddenly disappeared, and before he had time to sort out the joy bursting out of his heart, Gao Yingjie launched a continuous mental attack on him, probably because he was too drunk, even The usual shyness didn't know where to throw it: "Yifan, Yifan—oh, don't blame me, okay, I didn't mean it..."

"I..." Qiao Yifan was at a loss from the straight ball, his face was hot, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.Blood was rushing to his face. For some reason, he stretched out his hand obsessively, and gently brushed away the bangs on Gao Yingjie's forehead that were wet with sweat. As soon as his hand touched Gao Yingjie's forehead, he realized that Wrong.

Qiao Yifan was surprised, and then he became worried: "Yingjie, do you have a fever?!"

"Huh?" Gao Yingjie raised his head, his face was blushing, he looked confused, and tilted his head slightly, "No, I don't know..."

"How hot are you!" Qiao Yifan was a little anxious, frowning worriedly, "Wait until I get the thermometer—" But before he got up, Gao Yingjie had already hugged him.He was pressed on the bed, and Gao Yingjie rubbed against his neck, like a limp and drunk wine dumpling, under the surge of emotion, even acting like a baby was clingy: "Yifan, don't go."

With such a short distance and such a strong pheromone, even Qiao Yifan could smell the sweetness of vanilla.Several clues were strung together at once, Qiao Yifan thought of what he had only read on Baidu Encyclopedia, his eyes widened, and his whole body froze: "Yingjie, are you... in heat...?"

Gao Yingjie just hugged him impatiently, and rubbed against his legs, as if he didn't know how to dispel the tide of emotion, he let out an uncomfortable "woo", and simply bit Qiao Yifan's fair and delicate neck.

Qiao Yifan was caught off guard, and groaned in pain, with a trembling voice: "Ying, Yingjie?" He didn't get a reply, he pulled Gao Yingjie off his body with great effort, and got up hurriedly with a blushing face: "Yingjie, bear with me, I'm going to get you the inhibitor—"

"——Don't," Gao Yingjie grabbed his hand, and suddenly there was a bit of quiet crying in his voice, "Yifan, don't go, okay?"

Those familiar eyes were covered with mist, pure and innocent, with despair and pleading that could not be concealed.

Qiao Yifan... What else can Qiao Yifan do.

He could only turn around slowly, and nervously and shyly, bravely, dimmed the lamp by the bedside.

Everything that happened after that... just deviated from the normal track.

Since Gao Yingjie consciously woke up as an Alpha, he has relied on inhibitors to suppress the estrus period, and his nature is introverted and innocent, so Qiao Yifan just discovered that his best friend—the 16-year-old Gao Yingjie—……… meeting.

In fact, Qiao Yifan himself is not very proficient, but at least he is so much older and has some extra experience that can be counted on the fingers.He took a deep breath, summoned up his courage, and pressed Gao Yingjie's lower body that couldn't be harder with his trembling fingers.

Then he closed his fingers and moved up and down gently and tentatively.

Just treat it as a help between boys, and for Yingjie's health, take on the responsibility of guiding the elders... Qiao Yifan tried so hard to convince himself and muster up his courage, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt ashamed, his face was hot About to smoke.

Having reached this point, it is impossible to turn back. In the quiet room, there is only the subtle and erotic sound of water. The two people's panting sounds low, intertwined with each other, with a hot temperature.The dim and soft light came down and fell on Gao Yingjie's trembling eyelashes. Such a momentary gaze, pure and clean, made Qiao Yifan feel as if he was teaching a minor?

And what made him feel even more ashamed... he actually became a little hard.

The movement of Qiao Fan's hands stopped for a moment, and Gao Yingjie noticed it immediately, and he was a little confused: "... Yifan?" As soon as he said it, he also felt the subtle heat and hardness of the lower body where the two were close, Slightly widened his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and Qiao Yifan immediately dodged his eyes as if running away, so embarrassed that he didn't even know where to put his hands: "I..." Even the tips of his ears were red, his face was full of shyness and panic, almost immediately Just want to escape.Gao Yingjie quickly grabbed him, rolled over and trapped him under him: "...Yifan!"

A bolt of lightning suddenly fell outside the window, bright white light illuminating the dim interior.

In the quietness before the storm, in the airtight room, the heartbeats of the two could almost be heard beating drums.Gao Yingjie's heart was pounding like a pounding, his throat slid up and down, he suppressed the restlessness and shyness in his heart, and slowly said, "Yifan, let me help you... is it okay?"

The sultry thunder finally fell.Then there was the sound of rain, beating on the glass window along the gap, getting more and more urgent. The first thunderstorm in summer in City B poured down, and the cold rain washed away all the heat and stickiness. The whole world was shrouded in this hazy water vapor, covering up all the sounds and blurs.

However, after a night of confusion, the time for parting will finally come.

Gao Yingjie silently watched Qiao Yifan packing up his things.Maybe he should go up and help, but he doesn't want to go up and help.Pack slowly.Qiao Yifan can at least delay for a while, can't he?

It's just a suitcase with some carry-on clothes.All other things and equipment are provided by the club. Newcomers are really not qualified, nor are they able to pursue too many material things.

He carried such a small box and walked out of Tiny Herb.Gao Yingjie walked him to the door, hesitant to speak.

Qiao Yifan smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I will be back."

"Oh……"

"It's just that we won't be teammates by then. It's a pity that we haven't had the chance to play side by side with you." Qiao Yifan said.

"It's okay, we—" Gao Yingjie bit his lip, suppressed the unwillingness in his heart, and said against his will, "We are still friends."

"Yeah." Qiao Yifan smiled, "Then... I'm leaving?"

"Um……"

A little blush suddenly appeared on Qiao Yifan's face, he hesitated for a while, and said softly: "Yingjie, you too...don't forget to take the inhibitor."

"Uh... huh—? Uh, huh!" Gao Yingjie was taken aback, his ears were red, and he lowered his head.

They tacitly did not mention last night.

That derailed last night.

"Goodbye." Qiao Yifan said.

"Goodbye." Gao Yingjie finally gave him a hug.He buried his face in Qiao Yifan's neck, and greedily took a deep breath, as if he wanted to retain the weight and temperature in his arms for the last time.

Yifan, give me some time.He said silently in his heart.

One day, I will be strong enough to stand by your side—and then, I will meet you and come back to me.
