go too far

"Boom".

As soon as they left the dormitory building, they were greeted with a muffled thunder.

Xu Su looked at the sky and asked, "Have you brought your umbrella?"

"No." Chu Feiyu replied briefly in a quick step.

Xu Su went to see Jiang Yu again, and shook his head when he saw him.

Chu Feiyu walked fast, and he was already two steps away from the other two. He quickly said, "Rush back when it rains, and it's only a short distance to come back from the classroom."

Xu Su trotted two steps to keep up, and replied, "That's right. How old is it?"

"51."

Jiang Yu followed them step by step, stepping into the campus from the dormitory area.He lowered his head and stared at the road under his feet, when a few pieces of falling pink suddenly came into his sight.

"Our school actually grows cherry blossoms?"

Xu Su asked at the right time, and Chu Feiyu asked him back: "Didn't you see it yesterday?"

"I didn't leave here yesterday." Xu Su said, "I entered the school from the east gate in the morning, and went back to the dormitory after eating out in the evening."

Chu Feiyu said "Oh" and didn't speak again.

Jiang Yu didn't make a sound, a cherry blossom petal happened to rub against the back of his hand on the way of falling, and it was a little itchy, so he grabbed the petal.

When I arrived at the classroom, it was only 1 minute before the start of class. The teacher had already taken out the roster and was waiting for the class bell to ring.

He Lin had already gone to the printing shop and arrived in the classroom, and even helped them occupy the seats in the back row of the classroom. Before the bell rang, he asked casually: "Why is it later than me?"

Chu Feiyu pouted his chin at the other two, and said, "Ask them."

He Lin immediately looked at Jiang Yu, who replied calmly: "It's late."

It was the same with He Lin's guess. It just so happened that the bell rang. He pinched the other person's cheek, then withdrew his hand, and leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "You can stay in bed."

After shouting one by one, Jiang Yu put the petals in his pocket just now in front of He Lin, and He Lin gave him a questioning look.

Jiang Yu glanced at the teacher in front of the classroom, pulled out a piece of draft paper, and wrote on it: "Guarantee that you won't stay in bed."

He Lin took a look, laughed silently, and then sandwiched the petals between the pages of the book.

Throughout the morning, the thunder outside the window continued, but the rain did not fall, like phlegm stuck in the throat, which could not be coughed up or swallowed, leaving only discomfort and irritability, making people upset for no reason.

After class at noon, the four of them left the classroom together until they reached the fork in the road. He Lin said, "Then I'll go to the counselor's office to hand in the materials."

"Want to wait for you?" Jiang Yu asked.

"No need," He Lin waved his hand and said, "You guys should go back first."

The three agreed, and they split into two roads at the fork in the road.

Although the rain had not yet fallen, it was still about to pour down. They didn't dare to walk slowly, and mingled with the crowd after class and strode towards the dormitory.

Seeing the cherry blossom tree at the school gate again, Jiang Yu suddenly remembered something and called to stop the two of them.

"I suddenly remembered that I had to hand in the scholarship application form, you guys go back first."

Chu Feiyu turned around and asked him, "Call He Lin and ask He Lin to hand it over?"

"No way," Jiang Yu shook his head, "I have to print the handwriting, but I haven't printed it yet, and besides, I need to check my student ID card when I hand it in."

"It's almost raining, can't you pay in two days? You have to go back now and make a detour."

Jiang Yu thought for a moment, then said: "Let's go and hand it in, so as not to drag it to the end, I met He Lin by the way and asked him to hand it in too."

The other two stopped persuading, and said: "Then you go and come back quickly."

Jiang Yu nodded slightly, turned around and left.

Friday is the final deadline for submitting applications. They have been busy with the dance some time ago. There is no class this afternoon, and He Lin will go to work in the next two days. The counselor of their class happened to be away, but fortunately, we negotiated with other teachers in the office and asked them to hand in the student ID card and application form first, and then handed them over to the counselor.

This time, I remembered this incident on the way back to the dormitory, but Jiang Yu vaguely remembered that it was the same before, but he was too lazy to go back to the office at that time, thinking that it would be no problem to wait until Friday, so he went straight back to the dormitory , the result almost outweighs the gain.

On the way to the counselor's office, he passed the printing shop in the school, but it was lunch break after all. When Jiang Yu arrived, he found that there were three or four people in line in front of him.He was afraid that He Lin had already left after submitting the materials, so he made a call, but no one answered.

It was the turn of the classmate in front of Jiang Yu. He printed it several times, but he was still struggling with the wrong format and kept revising it on the computer.It was the fourth time the busy tone came from the mobile phone, and there was another "bang" outside the store. Jiang Yu frowned, and asked the person in front of the computer impatiently: "Student, how long do you have to modify?"

The man quickly said a few words of embarrassment, exited the file, pulled out the USB flash drive and left.Jiang Yu quickly printed two application forms, left the money and strode towards the office.

The frequency of the thunder seems to have become higher, Jiang Yu called again, but still no one answered, inadvertently, he didn't even notice that he started trotting.After finally rushing to the counselor's office and knocking on the door, there was no one in the counselor's place.

"Mr. Liu." Jiang Yu called out to the person in front of the office next to him, "Excuse me, is Mr. Tang here today?"

The person called "Teacher Liu" looked up at him and said, "I was still there just now, a classmate came to look for her, why don't you..."

In the middle of the conversation, the door suddenly opened again, and the two looked at the door together. It was Teacher Tang that Jiang Yu was talking about.

"Hey, Teacher Tang, another student is looking for you."

"Teacher," Jiang Yu also called out, "I'll hand in the scholarship application form."

Tang Jinghui took a deep look at him, but said: "Since you happen to be here, come here." As soon as she said that, she turned around and went out the door.

Jiang Yu was deeply puzzled, and after nodding to Teacher Liu, he went out to follow.

Jiang Yu followed Tang Jinghui, wondering in his heart why Tang Jinghui called him out of the office to talk. At the same time, he caught a glimpse of a document bag and a few pieces of paper in her hand. Relying on the words on the paper, he recognized that this was just now. I saw it in class, and He Lin wanted to hand over the materials to Tang Jinghui.

"Teacher," Jiang Yu said tentatively, "Did He Lin come to look for you just now? Has he already left?"

Tang Jinghui sighed inexplicably, and said, "Just left."

Hearing this, Jiang Yu nodded lightly, thinking that the other party could not see, so he added "Okay".He thought to himself that the reason why the other party didn't answer the phone just now was probably because he was talking to Tang Jinghui. The two missed it, so they had to go back and remind He Lin to submit the application form again in the afternoon.

It's just that he changed his mind and thought again, what is there to talk about between He Lin and the counselor, even for nearly 10 minutes?

In the small conference room, Tang Jinghui opened the door with the key: "Come in."

Jiang Yu followed her in, closed the door, and said, "Teacher, let me fill out this application form first."

"Wait a while." Tang Jinghui stopped him, "I'll tell you something else first."

They sat at the two corners of the table nearby. Tang Jinghui put the documents aside, took out the contents of the document bag, and put them directly in front of Jiang Yu.

"Look at it."

When Jiang Yu's sight touched the thing in front of him, his eyes widened instantly. He glanced at Tang Jinghui in disbelief, and then turned his gaze back to the thing in front of him.

It's a photo.

It's a photo of him kissing He Lin.

The feeling of suffocation swept over for a long time, and the two scholarship application forms slipped from the hands resting on his lap. Jiang Yu woke up like a dream, said "Sorry" in a trembling voice, bent down to pick up the papers, Put it aside and picked up the stack of photos.

It looks like a series of continuous shots, and it also looks like pictures taken from a video. After being printed into a normal five-inch photo, it is not very clear, but it is still possible to identify who the two protagonists in the photo are. The same color block before wearing the T-shirt is exactly the abstract LOGO painting that Jiang Yu didn't understand that was printed on the T-shirt of the club dance last year.

It was the day they went to perform in Happy Valley.

It was the kiss on Gumu Youlong.

Tang Jinghui pointed to the one whose body was half covered by the people in the front row, and said, "This is you."

After a while, Jiang Yu silently nodded.

Tang Jinghui sighed again earnestly: "Jiang Yu, it's not that the teacher doesn't allow you to fall in love. You are all college students and adults. As a counselor, it is impossible to control you like a high school teacher."

Jiang Yu opened his mouth, but Tang Jinghui didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "It's not that the teacher discriminates against homosexuals, it's just that this photo was sent to me today, in case it will be sent to the department head tomorrow, to the courtyard, to What should we do above? There is no precedent in our school, but do you dare to try? Do you dare to take your own future to try?"

After asking a few times, she paused. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the scholarship application form that Jiang Yu had brought, so she took the paper and put it in front of Jiang Yu, stacking it on top of the pile of photos.The paper in the printing shop is thin, and the color blocks of the photos underneath can still be seen vaguely.

"I can't guarantee that you won't be affected just by applying for the scholarship."

Jiang Yu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, his response could only be seen from his slight nod.

Seeing that the other party didn't say a word, Tang Jinghui was ready to let the other party think for herself. The students in University C are among the best, and she believes that Jiang Yu can understand what she said.So she took away the application form, packed up the photos, and said in a gentle tone: "You guys think about it in private, pay attention, and don't let me see these photos again."

"Teacher Tang." Jiang Yu suddenly called out.

He raised his head, making it impossible to hear his ups and downs, and asked almost indifferently: "Did you and He Lin also talk about this photo just now?"

"That's what I'm talking about," Tang Jinghui nodded, "I just want to tell you that there are photos, and I don't mean that you will be punished. Don't worry. He Lin said that he would talk to you, if you didn't happen to come Now, I will let you talk about it yourself."

After a while, Jiang Yu responded without changing his face: "Got it."

After tidying up the photos, Tang Jinghui put them back into the file bag, got up and pushed the application form in front of Jiang Yu, saying, "Just fill it out here, just come to the office and hand it to me when you're done."

"Teacher," Jiang Yu called out, "I'll go back and fill it out before handing it in."

Tang Jinghui gave an indifferent "hmm": "Pay attention to the deadline, don't be too late."

After leaving the small conference room, there were already raindrops outside, Tang Jinghui asked him, "Have you brought an umbrella?"

Jiang Yu said: "It doesn't matter, I will run back to the dormitory soon."

Tang Jinghui reminded with concern: "If you really can't do it, then go later and wait until the rain stops."

Jiang Yu shook his head: "There is something urgent to go back to the dormitory."

Hearing this, Tang Jinghui didn't say any more, and finally patted Jiang Yu on the shoulder, and then left towards the office.

Jiang Yu looked up, the sky was gloomy, the rain was pattering down, and when it fell on the ground, it printed disgusting dense circles.With no hat on, Jiang Yu stepped directly into the rain.

The screen of the mobile phone was also splashed by the rain in an instant. Jiang Yu shook his hand and poked it several times uncontrollably before successfully dialing a call. However, the message from the mobile phone attached to his ear was still listening Several times of busy tone.

After hanging up the phone, he called Xu Su instead, and the call was quickly connected this time.He asked Xu Su, where is He Lin?Answer over there, I just took my clothes to take a shower when I came back...

"Boom"!

With another thunder, the rain suddenly poured down. Jiang Yu hung up the phone without waiting for the other party to finish speaking.The brisk walk turned into a trot, and the students who did not have umbrellas on the road quickly ran indoors or under the eaves to hide from the rain, stopping and sighing at this madman running in the rain.

The torrential rain wet the bangs, making them all stick to Jiang Yu's forehead, and the ends of his hair slightly blocked his sight. He raised his hand disapprovingly and brushed them aside, his pace was not slow at all, and his mind kept thinking.

Who actually took the photo?

Why should the person who took the photo send it to the counselor?

It is meaningless to delve deeper into these issues, Jiang Yu couldn't help thinking about it, and then quickly skipped it, he had no time to think about it.Although it will be some time before they broke up with them back then, there is only one question on Jiang Yu's mind at the moment.

——Did He Lin break up with him because of this matter?

A lot of rainwater trickled down his face and into his eyes, but no one around him could wipe it off for him in advance, so he could only wipe it off by himself, and he didn't know whether it was rain or tears.In the temporarily less hazy field of vision, there appeared the gate leading to the dormitory building area, as well as several nearby cherry blossom trees.

The wind became howling, and suddenly bursts of petals blew down. Jiang Yu passed through the fallen flowers and stepped into the bedroom area.

On the way to the dormitory building, the vows I once made became more and more clear in my mind.Pile up, then zoom in, grinning bloody mouth, as if mocking what he once believed to be true.

——"Let's not break up."

——"No matter what happens, we will carry it together."

This is obviously what that person said, but why is he carrying everything by himself now?Could it be that these words are purely verbal temporary comfort? !

Suddenly, Jiang Yu recalled a sentence He Lin explained to him after his puppy love was exposed.

——"I'm a man, I should carry it..."

"This idiot..."

Jiang Yu murmured in the rain, and the slight sound was easily covered by the sound of the rain.

How similar... Being discovered, breaking up, and the two consecutive steps seemed to be repeating the past.

But isn't he a man?Is he also going to stay under the umbrella he thought he was?Isn't he qualified to carry it shoulder to shoulder with him? !

Why even after two years, the only solution for this fool when encountering this kind of thing is to bear it silently, and he didn't even tell him the news, and only gave him the last ultimatum to break up? !

With nowhere to vent his anger, Jiang Yu couldn't help cursing secretly.

"Hold!"

They have complained countless times that the dormitory building is too close to the school, and when they returned to the dormitory, they hadn't even delivered the takeaway.But now, Jiang Yu felt extremely far away, as if no matter how long or how fast he ran, he was drifting away from the person in the dormitory.

But he promised He Lin that if the other party left, he would go after him.

Building No. [-] was right in front of him. Jiang Yu stepped on a step of the stairs, but suddenly felt the nerves and organs all over his body screaming for pain, and a force pulled him back!He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and in the next second, he clearly saw the other foot stepping on the upper step, but it was not him, because he was clearly retreating involuntarily.

The shower came and went quickly. Although it didn't stop completely, the rain was much weaker than before, leaving only the sultry heat after the heavy rain in the air.

But Jiang Yu's heart turned cold in an instant.

He watched "Jiang Yu" go up the stairs and into the dormitory floor, and nodded with the dormitory manager expressionlessly.Jiang Yu followed, watching "he" go up to the second floor and walk through the empty corridor, the corners of his clothes were dripping water, leaving evenly divided water stains on the corridor.Jiang Yu stepped on those water stains, but failed to wipe off any of them, and all the water splashes still maintained the appearance of splashing after they dripped.

"Jiang Yu" walked to the door of 220, took out the key from the bag and opened the door.Then Xu Su's voice quickly came out of the room: "Hey, Jiang Yu, why are you so wet?"

"Jiang Yu" replied in a steady tone: "It rained suddenly."

With a "bang", the door of the dormitory was closed heavily in front of Jiang Yu, and it seemed that he could still vaguely hear the voices in the room, but he couldn't hear the content clearly.After a while, the slapping of slippers and the ground echoed in the empty corridor, becoming louder and louder. Jiang Yu looked back and saw that it was He Lin who had returned from the shower.

He Lin lowered his head, and the two of them were getting closer and closer. The moment they passed by, Jiang Yu's heartbeat suddenly stopped, but He Lin didn't notice his existence at all, and walked past him, raised his head and knocked on the bedroom door. twice.

Not long after, someone opened the door from the inside. He paused for a second, then walked in, and asked nonchalantly, "Why are you so wet from the rain?"

The reply of "myself" was isolated behind the closed door again, and Jiang Yu could no longer hear it, perhaps because this reply should not have existed in the first place.

Jiang Yu froze in place, he could only quietly watch the intertwined water marks outside the window at the end of the corridor.I don't know which dormitory door was suddenly opened, and the sound of laughter filled the entire corridor. A boy rushed out of the room, ran towards the direction where Jiang Yu was standing, and finally penetrated him mercilessly.

He subconsciously looked down at his body, lost the weight of the backpack on his shoulders, and his clothes were still the same as when he went out.A rain-soaked cherry blossom petal accidentally stuck to the back of his hand, but he didn't feel it from the beginning. He stretched out his hand to twirl the petal off, and it seemed as if he was only pinching the illusory air between his fingers.

Very vulgarly, he raised his hand and twisted the flesh on his arm vigorously, but contrary to the general results, he could no longer feel the slightest pain no matter what.

It’s like returning to the time when there was a car accident and this grotesque world appeared in front of him. His senses were missing, leaving only his vision and hearing, making him look like a transparent person, looking at the scenes made up of his own memories. .

After all, he became an outsider watching the theater again.

It turned out that the tampering of fate that I always thought was just a fantasy world.
