【Leian】Love at first sight

An Mixiu was stunned for a moment.But soon, he found a vaguely familiar name from the corner of his brain's accumulation of memories. He listened to the breathing on the other end of the phone, and his tone was suddenly tinged with surprise: "Is it Senior Lena?"

"I thought you had forgotten it long ago." Ghost Fox smiled lightly and admitted tacitly.

"How could it be!" An Mixiu hurriedly denied, his voice rose unconsciously due to joy.He walked step by step along the corridor outside the bedroom to the balcony, opened the sliding door, and continued the topic in the bright sunshine outside, "I'm just so surprised... Anyway, I must congratulate you! Although I really want to say you guys He should be the same age as me, so is it possible to get married without graduating from university?" He thought he had told a funny joke, and giggled because of it.

But the ghost fox on the other end of the phone didn't laugh with him.He seemed to take a deep breath, and then said slowly: "I didn't go to college after graduating from high school...I'm sorry that I lost contact with you later, but...these things are very complicated to talk about, I don't really want to talk on the phone Li said, how about we meet tomorrow night and catch up on the old days?"

An Mixiu is keenly aware of how memorable this is, what makes a person with excellent grades in the past give up the chance to go to college, just think about it, and you will know that it must be full of bitterness and sorrow.

"Okay, it's okay, you can say it anytime you want." He scratched his hair in embarrassment because of what he said earlier, and was circling around the balcony like a bee at a loss, "Is it tomorrow night? Where is it? Don't worry." , I will definitely prepare a big red envelope for you!"

Ghost Fox quickly reported the address, and An Mixiu had a little impression that it was not a high-end hotel.Then he heard the ghost fox on the other end of the microphone laugh a few times as if he was amused by him, "You don't have to be so polite, I didn't invite anyone. It's just a small wedding, and we all have dinner together to catch up."

"The little wedding is very good, very, very warm!" An Mixiu's tongue was tied, and he thought he was a bit embarrassed to say something.He stopped circling, and stood in the most sunny corner, dizzy from the steaming heat above his head. He was annoyed at his clumsy tongue, but he really couldn't speak better sentences like a lark.

"Pfft, you're still the same as before." Ghost Fox couldn't help laughing again, but his tone was full of nostalgia, "I won't tell you more, I have to call the next person, anyway tomorrow night you Come here early, I feel like we'll have a lot to talk about."

"Okay, okay." An Mixiu seemed to be able to say only this word at this moment. He nodded his head as diligently as a chicken pecking rice, but he didn't realize that the person on the other end of the phone would see his movements.

After Guihu hung up the phone, An Mixiu didn't recover for a long time.Holding the phone, he squatted down slowly.The balcony is full of flowers and plants that Mama An usually planted. They are carefully cared for every day, and at this moment, they are blooming in clusters in the east and west.An Mixiu stared at one of the Clivia, silently lost in the fragrance of flowers.

Until the sliding door next to him was opened, a face full of impatience was revealed.

Lei Shi said confidently: "An Mixiu, I'm thirsty."

An Mixiu nodded in a daze, but squatted there without moving for a long time as if he didn't hear it.It wasn't until Lei Shi stretched out his foot and kicked his ass in displeasure that An Mixiu turned back and glared at him like a frightened little animal.

The two came out from the balcony one after the other, An Mixiu went into the kitchen to pour water, and Lei Shi leaned against the kitchen door and watched him busy.

"Who made that phone call just now? I see you were in a daze for a while." Lei Shi finally couldn't hold back, and couldn't help asking.

"Ghost fox." An Mixiu lowered his head and poured water into the cup. He remembered that Lei Shi didn't seem to know about the ghost fox, so he shut up and didn't plan to continue after saying these two words.

But Lei Shi had already been completely spoiled by the spoiler, he bullied himself to the side of An Mixiu, reached out with one hand and took a sip from the cup, and then continued to talk about this topic.

"What did he say that made you daze for so long?"

"It's nothing."

"Let me guess... catch up on the past? Have a meal?"

"No."

"Speaking of which, it seems that something happened to him that caused a lot of trouble?"

"..."

"Have you heard any rumors about him? I seem to have heard of it some time ago, saying that he—"

"He's getting married." An Mixiu couldn't bear to interrupt before Lei Shi's pretended to be mysterious.At this moment, he only felt that his brain was full of buzzing, and he wasn't sure if it was because the sun was too hot just now, or if the ghost fox's words were too impactful.But there was indeed a restless, gloomy, dark cloud-like mood entangled him, strangling his neck so tight that he couldn't breathe.

"Oh... Congratulations." Lei Shi stopped being a monster, and he quickly realized that something was wrong with An Mixiu at the moment, but he couldn't figure out what it was, so Lei Shi could only cautiously restrain his tone ,"time?"

"Tomorrow night." After An Mixiu said this sentence, he didn't say another word. He seemed to have been drained of strength, holding a glass full of water, and dragging his slippers into the room.

Everything after that happened very quickly, like an unexpected rainstorm belonging to this season, sweeping his whole world wildly and whistling.

An Mixiu remembered that he was surrounded by a nameless emotion that day, his heart was depressed, and he couldn't seem happy on his face.

Lei Shi stayed at their house for lunch as usual that day, and An Mixiu talked about going to a classmate's wedding tomorrow night at the dinner table. Mother An was very happy, and after eating, she happily wanted to find clothes for her son.

"Mom...why should I wear a suit? No, it's not my wedding. What should I do if I look so good-looking?" An Mixiu looked at Mama An rummaging through boxes and cabinets at home with a headache, but Mama An When the interest came, no one could stop him. Seeing that there was no suitable suit in his son's wardrobe, he ran to Dad Ann's wardrobe to look for it.While looking for it, he chatted with Lei Shi who was watching the play, and gestured at An Mixiu with various clothes.

"Oh, my son is so handsome, he looks good no matter what he wears! But I still think he looks the most stylish in a suit, doesn't he?"

Seeing An Mixiu's expression of daring anger but not speaking, Lei Shi suppressed a smile, and nodded to An's mother, "Yes, An Mixiu is really handsome."

"I remember your dad has another good one, come, baby, come in with me to try it out. But your dad doesn't have any leather shoes, I remember you seem to have a pair? Are they under the bed? Leishi, please Do auntie a favor, help me take out the pair of leather shoes under An Mixiu's bed." Mama An gave orders as always, quickly and ruthlessly, and before An Mixiu could react, he was pushed into the master bedroom by his mother .

Hearing the sound of the thunder lion turning back into the bedroom, he always felt that something was wrong. The boredom had not disappeared, but it made him more uncomfortable as time went by.But he was too embarrassed to discourage his mother's rare interest, so he let his mother try on clothes for him like a puppet.An Mixiu looked at the floor-to-ceiling mirror in front of him, the young man in a neat suit with a narrow waist and long legs was indeed much handsomer.

"This suit is really pretty. Oh, let me tell you, this is the suit your father wore when he got married." Mother An continued to help him turn up the collar happily, talking about the past, "At that time When your father came to meet the bride in this suit, I thought he was handsome. Sure enough, our family’s genes are well inherited! Maybe when you get married in the future—”

"Mom, let me go see what Lei Shi is doing. I've been waiting for a long time, but why hasn't that guy come here?" An Mixiu interrupted his mother as if he couldn't bear it. His boredom has made him unable to listen to his mother's nagging.

I'm sorry, mom.He was thinking silently in his heart.I'm really sorry.

"Ah...Okay, go and have a look." Mother An blinked, as if she didn't understand what happened to her son suddenly.But she didn't say anything, just smiled with a quick frowned.

An Mixiu quickly opened the door and rushed out. He was like a fish out of water for too long, breathing heavily the moment he jumped into the fish tank.An Mixiu quickly adjusted his heart rate and knocked on the closed door of his bedroom.

"Lei Shi, have you found it?"

After waiting for a long time, the room was still silent.An Mixiu frowned strangely, so he raised his hand and twisted the doorknob.The moment he opened the door, both eyelids suddenly jumped.

"Lei Shi, why haven't you--" An Mixiu gently closed the door after entering the room, he walked in while making a sound, and saw the person he was looking for sitting on the floor, with a large spread beside him. Pile of rummaged boxes.

"I said you haven't found it yet, okay? My mother and I have been waiting for a long time." An Mixiu rubbed his brows and put his hips on his hips helplessly.He lifted his foot over a pile of randomly placed boxes, and raised his hand to pat the shoulder of the man sitting on the ground.

Then Lei Shi turned his head, turned around with half of his body, and was holding a notebook in his hand.It may be that his expression was too horrifying, like great joy after great grief, his face was distorted due to the mixed emotions for a while.When An Mixiu touched his shoulder, he realized that this guy's whole body was trembling, trembling tightly.

"Why do you..." An Mixiu didn't react for a long time, until his eyes slowly fell on the open book.The immature handwriting on it, the neat and rigid typesetting, and the year, month, and day on the top line all recall An Mixiu's long-lasting memory in an instant.

At that moment, maybe only a few tenths of a second, An Mixiu's mind was blank, but he still made a move in such a short time - he was about to run back.

But Lei Shi moved faster than him, like a cheetah waiting for an opportunity, the moment An Mixiu retracted his legs, he immediately pounced on it!He put his arms around An Mixiu's waist, and the two entangled among a pile of messy cardboard boxes.An Mixiu tried desperately to hide and escape, but Lei Shi hugged him tightly no matter what.During this period, no one spoke, except for the increasingly heavy breathing and the chaotic steps of feet on the floor.

In the end, An Mixiu accidentally stepped on a piece of paper in a panic, slipped his toe, and fell to the ground with Lei Shi.

This time the commotion was louder, and Mother An outside the house was startled.She stepped on her slippers and knocked on the door, her voice contained worry: "What's going on? Did you two fall?"

Mother An didn't know that within a wall, her two beloved children were wrestling on the ground like trapped animals.

An Mixiu struggled several times to get up, but Lei Shi firmly pushed him back.Both of them blushed anxiously because of the reason.Lei Shi grabbed An Mixiu's legs tightly with one knee, and his two hands also grabbed the other's slender wrists, and fixed them on top of An Mixiu's head.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard Mother An knock on the door again.Lei Shi lowered his head, and saw An Mixiu pursed his lips tightly, Bicui's eyes were full of panic, his face was paler than usual, not the thin red that Lei Shi loved.

"The two of us are fine! We just accidentally fell!" Lei Shi suddenly turned his head and shouted towards the bedroom door, "We are still looking for shoes, we will go there later!"

"Okay, okay, slow down, both of you." Mother An seemed to be relieved, and then she heard footsteps again, and the door became quiet again.

No one can bother them now, Leo thought.Finally got to talk to this guy.

"Do we have to speak in this posture?" An Mixiu spoke while Lei Shi was in a daze.His voice became extremely hoarse, as if he had cried, with a sense of pain from the heart.

"I'm afraid that if you don't do this, you will run away, like you just now—no, like you have been doing for so many years." Lei Shi managed to find his voice, although he was almost unable to restrain himself because of the extreme joy.But don't scare him, Lei Shi warned himself, he has to proceed step by step.

"I won't, and I didn't run away again." An Mixiu said in a calm voice, staring at Lei Shi in this awkward posture.The faces of the two of them were very close, and their breath could be sprayed on each other's face at any time when they were talking.But even so, An Mixiu still felt cold, like the cold seeping from the bone marrow when his heart fell into an ice cave.

"...Okay." Lei Shi thought for a while, and finally compromised.He quickly got up from An Mixiu and stood at the door, as if he was afraid that this guy would run away again.

But An Mixiu didn't have any inclination to run away.He slowly got up from the ground, his movements sluggish like a robot lacking oil.He first turned his back to Lei Shi for a while, his back heaving as if he was taking a deep breath, then he turned around, walked to the diary that had been dropped due to the scuffle between the two just now, and bent down to pick it up.

"You must have a lot to say." An Mixiu flipped through the diary in his hand with a cold expression.He looked at his childish handwriting in the past, looked at the joy and sorrow written on it, and when he turned to the place where the word "like" appeared for the first time, he finally couldn't go on.An Mixiu closed the notebook, looked up at Lei Shi.

"It's actually useless to explain it. You saw it at the beginning. It was indeed not my intention, but I'm really sorry for the loss of control later on." An Mixiu took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly. "But yes, I used to like you, very much."

"I—" Lei Shi's heart tightened, and he tensed up and wanted to step forward, but saw An Mixiu lowered his head again, and made a movement that made him almost cry out.

An Mixiu tore up the diary.

Then he heard An Mixiu's voice, cold and thin like broken ice, falling from between his fluttering lips and teeth.

"But that's all in the past. You asked the person I had a crush on for seven years before, yes, that person is you. And I gave you the answer at that time, and I said I don't like it anymore."

For a moment, the whole room fell silent, and the sentence "I don't like it anymore" reverberated in the hearts of the two of them like an echo.

An Mixiu sniffed subconsciously, and he had to admit that he mustered all his strength to keep himself from crying.This is so embarrassing, he thought.There has never been a more embarrassing moment in the past 20 years than now.Those shyness, pain, fear, and even because of the accumulation of too many negative emotions, only a cold expressionless face is displayed on the face.

How much he hopes that this time is the end of the world, and the world will disappear in the next second, so that he will not face the next torture, and face what Lei Shi will say next——

"But, I like you."

He looked up, his eyes widened as if he had heard some hallucination.

But it was indeed Lei Shi's voice, with a rare tension, and a pair of eyes locked on him tightly.Then An Mixiu heard Lei Shi say it again, the sentence he most wanted to hear when he was adolescence tortured by lovesickness and secret love.

"I like you, An Mixiu."

It's over, he thought.This time I really want to cry.

"When did it start?" An Mixiu tried to stand up straight, with fragments of the diary piled up at his feet.

"Not long ago." Lei Shi tried to walk towards him, his eyes full of hope, "I doubted myself for a long time, but then I was sure, I really like you, so we—"

"Maybe I didn't explain what I just said clearly, or that diary gave you some inappropriate misunderstanding." An Mixiu rubbed his reddish nose, with a miserable smile on his face.He looked at Lei Shi, as if the person who passed through reality saw his former self.He saw the self who carefully filled his hands with his beloved, and then he picked up the knife, and he killed his past.

"I said, I don't like you anymore. So it's useless for you to like me. "

As expected, An Mixiu saw the astonishment in Lei Shi's eyes, as if some established fact was suddenly overturned, and he couldn't move because of disbelief.An Mixiu felt a rush of pleasure, a rush of revenge.But more, he felt sadness again, a sadness greater than burying his past.

"Having the ability to love someone is a blessing. I think I should congratulate you. You have not lost this ability."

He finally remembered why when he received the call from Ghost Fox in the morning, he felt the lingering depression.It turned out that it was envy, it was born in my heart because I couldn't get it, deep envy.

"You go back today first, you don't need to help me find my shoes, I can do it myself." An Mixiu threw the fragments of the diary into the trash can, then stood up and walked towards the door of the bedroom.He paused when he passed by Lei Shi, he felt the surging anger in this man's heart, but these were nothing.An Mixiu thought, I don't care anymore.

"Thank you, and, go slowly."

TBC.
