Tonight, Ji Juan is at home.

The warm lights fill the whole room, the smell of food comes from the kitchen, the "booming" sound of the range hood, and the "sizzling" sound of the food in the pot, everything looks warm and beautiful.

With bright eyes, Chen Yu quickly took off his shoes, trotted in, and then ran to the kitchen.

"Mother."

Ji Juan turned her head, her brows were soft, and her eyes were loving, "Are you back? Put down your schoolbag, wash your hands, and eat."

"Yeah!" Chen Yu happily went back to his room, put away the gift Ye Jia gave him properly, and came out quickly.

Wash your hands, take the bowls and chopsticks to the dining table, and then go back to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.

The mother and son sat down facing each other.

Chen Yu is very happy, Ji Juan rarely eats with him at home, because of her work, every meal is the busiest time.

But Ji Juan would send him a message every day, asking him to remember to eat.

Ji Juan picked up food for Chen Yu, and seeing that Chen Yu ate it satisfied, she asked, "Is the taste good?"

With his mouth full of rice, Chen Yu nodded vigorously with his bulging cheeks.

"good to eat!"

Ji Juan looked at Chen Yu quietly, then wiped her eyes suddenly, and continued to pick up food for Chen Yu, "It's good, eat more."

"What's wrong with you?" Chen Yu saw Ji Juan's reddish eyes, and put down his chopsticks.

Ji Juan smiled, "It's nothing, eat the little fish quickly."

After a while, she asked again: "What would you like to eat for your birthday? Mom will make it for you on Sunday."

Chen Yu was pleasantly surprised, "Then, can fried chicken wings be okay?"

"Okay, is there any more?"

"Well, it's fine." Chen Yu's wish was really small, and it was easy to satisfy.

His little finger on his leg hooked the seam of his trousers, and his eyes were full of anticipation and longing, "Actually, I'm very happy that my mother is here and we can sit and eat together."

In my memory, birthdays accompanied by my mother and others have been a long time ago.

After the age of six, no one helped him on his birthday.

In primary school, on the birthday of a classmate, his parents ordered a big cake, and Chen Yu also got a piece.

That day also happened to be his birthday.

But, when he got home, there was only darkness, his mother wasn't there, and he didn't even have dinner.

Later, the mother remarried.

My mother quit her job and returned to the family. She has more leisure time, but she is also like in the past. She never cares about or cares about him. No one remembers his birthday, but her stepbrother's birthday is always a big deal.

My mother would prepare gifts for my stepbrother, work in the kitchen for him from morning to night, and entertain classmates for him.

When Chen Yu was eleven or twelve years old, he used to be very envious and mischievous, wanting his mother to notice him, but what he got was always his mother slapped him, hugged him, and said in his ear over and over again:

——"Be considerate of me, you should be considerate of me, I want to take you with me, I am very difficult..."

Gradually, Chen Yu didn't dare.

He hid his envy in a corner, sealed up all his expectations and desires, and began to accompany him with books and test papers.

On my birthday, I buy myself a small piece of cake and eat it alone in the park.

Walking out of the past, Chen Yu raised his head, released the hope that had been sealed in the bottom of his heart, and asked cautiously: "Mom, is it okay?"

Ji Juan covered her face, her voice tinged with tears, "Yes, of course."

After a while, she put down her hand, slowly raised a smile, and looked at Chen Yu deeply and intently, "Mom will definitely be with Xiaoyu that day."

After dinner, Chen Yu rushed to wash the dishes.

Ji Juan couldn't resist, so she agreed.

Ji Juan sat in the living room, facing the kitchen, looking at Chen Yu who was busy in the kitchen, a bit of pain and longing flashed in her eyes, holding a photo album tightly in her arms.

Closing your eyes, a tear slid down.

Opening it again, I have calmed down my emotions, and then put the photo album away again.

After Chen Yu took a shower, with wet hair on his head, he sat down at the desk, took out the manuscript paper and the Olympiad test questions, and planned to do it.

Xiao Shiqi came out: "Kiss, your hair needs to be dried!"

Chen Yu frowned slightly. He had just started this question and wanted to finish it.

Xiao Shiqi said again: "Kiss, you can't, blow your hair first!"

Chen Yu snorted a little, but got up obediently, blowing his hair with the hair dryer.

Thinking of something, he turned the air vent to his face again, like a child, opened his mouth childishly and made a sound of "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"".

Chen Yu's eyes were shining brightly, and he was very happy. The little flower was about to become a reality, flying around him.

Xiao Shiqi: "Dear, you are very happy today."

Chen Yu flicked his dry hair, thought of something, rubbed it again, it was really soft, no wonder Xie Lang always liked to touch his hair.

"Very, very." Chen Yu went back to the desk and sat down, picked up his pen again, and if he wrote it with spirit, he answered quickly even if it was a Mathematical Olympiad, "I received a gift today.

Then my mother also said that she would make fried chicken wings for me and would accompany me. "

Simply the best birthday present ever.

He can be happy for a long time, maybe even laugh in his dreams!

Xiao Shiqi's voice was somewhat gentle, "Dear, you are so easy to satisfy."

"Because, for many people, they might just be commonplace, or even commonplace." Chen Yu raised his eyes, looked at himself reflected in the glass, with a slight smile on his lips, "but for me, it's I have been looking forward to and longing for it. Therefore, it is very precious."

Xiao Shiqi suddenly stopped talking.

After a while, Chen Yu felt something pat his head lightly.

He asked, "Little Seventeen?"

"Yes." Xiao Shiqi replied.

After Chen Yu finished the two pages of Mathematical Olympiad questions, when the time came to 11:55, Xiao Shiqi spoke again, "Dear, it will be Xie Lang's birthday in 5 minutes, remember to wish him the first time."

Chen Yu stopped writing, surprised, "Is it already this late?"

Xiaoshiqi grumbled, "Kiss, you are wandering in the sea of ​​questions, you are very satisfied, why do you care about the time, when was it not me who reminded you to sleep?

Kiss, you know what, I feel like I've become an old woman! "

Chen Yu retorted in a low voice: "Where, there are only a few times in total."

Chen Yu didn't talk to Xiao Shiqi any more, put down his pen, took his phone instead, and found Xie Lang's number.

Want to call?

But it's so late, will you sleep?

Will it wake him up?

Finally decided to text.

However, when editing the content, Chen Yu encountered difficulties again.

This is the first time he has wished someone a happy birthday. In the past, he had no friends, let alone sent a text message.

What to write what to write?

Chen Yu stared at the phone, walked up and down in the small room, shaking from one end to the other, back and forth several times.

After thinking about it, I still only sent the words "Happy Birthday".

Chen Yu sat on the edge of the bed with his head downcast, listless.

Suddenly, the mobile phone left on the bed vibrated happily. Chen Yu lowered his head, saw the caller ID, and slid to answer it.

"Sheran?"

He whispered, "Did I wake you up?"

"I haven't slept yet." Xie Lang seemed to be outside, the noise carried radio waves and came to Chen Yu's ears, Xie Lang's voice was also caught inside, "Has Xiaoyu not slept yet?

Or set up an alarm clock to send me blessings on time? "

"I haven't slept yet." Chen Yu lay back on the bed, only to realize that the lamp in the room was in the shape of a four-leaf clover, with stars falling down on it.He heard Xie Lang's voice become quieter, and he probably walked to a quiet place, "Are you outside? Where are you?"

"Well, outside, at the bar." Xie Lang smiled lightly, "I am very happy to receive Xiaoyu's blessing."

"I, I don't know what to say," Chen Yu turned over and grabbed a small piece of the quilt, "So, there are only those four words."

"It's okay, that's enough."

Ji suddenly quieted down.

No one spoke anymore, but each other's breathing was clearly audible.

Chen Yu turned over on the bed several times, and said, "Aren't you going back?"

Glancing at the clock on the desk, "It's already ten past zero, it's early morning, it's late."

"It's not too late, it's still early." Xie Lang paused and asked, "Is Xiaoyu coming out? Ji Ming'an's band has a performance, do you want to come and listen?"

It's so late, are you going out?

In fact, I think a little bit.

It was the first time someone invited him out to play. It was different from the seaside barbecue last time, when no one invited him last time.

Chen Yu grabbed the quilt and rolled around a few times, his face wrinkled into a ball, hesitant.

Seemingly knowing that Chen Yu was struggling, Xie Lang said again: "I want to go to the beach tomorrow morning to watch the sunrise, Xiaoyu will come with me, it's my birthday wish."

Hearing this, Chen Yu no longer hesitated, since it was Xie Lang's birthday wish, he wanted to help realize it!

Chen Yu sat up, "I'll go over."



The taxi took Chen Yu to a bar street in City X.

At this time, it is busy here.

Chen Yu has always been very obedient, and has no interest in other things. He only wants to study and solve problems all day long. This is the first time he has come to a place like a bar.Looking at the feasting and feasting in front of him, his eyes were wide open, and he looked around curiously.

Then, he saw Shelan.

Xie Lang was surrounded by a group of people, black T, ripped copper jeans, a pair of Martin boots under his feet, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a lollipop, his eyes were downcast, his expression was calm and lazy Leaning lazily by the fence, he ignored others who approached him.

Chen Yu felt that the current Xie Lang was completely different from what he had seen in school, and it was also different from the few times he had seen him before.

It seems to be impatient with everything.

The kind written directly on the face.

Chen Yu stood there for a while before walking over.

Standing outside the crowd, Chen Yu yelled, the voice was not loud and could easily be ignored, but Xie Lang heard it and finally raised his head.

There is always a face full of impatience, but also a bit of warmth.

Passing through the group of people without squinting, Xie Lang walked up to Chen Yu, lowered his head, "Here you are?"

Chen Yu said "hmm", raised his face, and smiled at Xie Lang, "Happy birthday."

He took out the gift prepared for Xie Lang, handed it to Xie Lang, scratched his cheek, "This is a birthday present, but I don't know what you like, so I bought it according to my idea."

Holding the gift, Xie Lang stared at Chen Yu, watching him smile brightly at him. Ever since Ye Jia called Chen Yu out in the afternoon, and Chen Yu cherished Ye Jia's gift very much, the restlessness and impatience he had felt was wiped away. And the light.

Xie Lang asked softly, "Can I open it now?"

"sure."

The surrounding area was too noisy and there were many people. Many people looked at them, eager to strike up a conversation. Xie Lang took Chen Yu to a quiet place, and then carefully and carefully untied the bowknot, and unwrapped the package without any damage. Paper unwrapped.

There is also a box inside.

The box was opened, and a pair of black wristbands lay quietly inside. There was also a small card on it, which said happy birthday, in Chen Yu's handwriting.

The laughter of men and women not far away cannot be heard here.

There is only the rustling sound of the leaves blown by the breeze.

Under the street lights, their shadows overlapped.

Chen Yu said: "I think you will play basketball with Lu Ping and the others. When you are exercising, it is not good to wear a watch. You don't want others to see the scar. When you are playing, just put on a wrist guard.

I bought two and you can change the straps so they don't get dirty. "

"I like it very much," Sheran said. "Can I wear it now?"

When Chen Yu heard that Xie Lang liked it, he smiled even more happily. He raised his head and looked at Xie Lang, his eyes seemed to reflect the entire Milky Way, very bright and beautiful, "It's already yours. You can wear it whenever you want. "

Xie Lang took off his watch, put on a black wristband, then raised his hand, facing the street light, and said: "Xiaoyu has a good eye, it suits me very well."

There was a faint blush on Chen Yu's cheeks, "As long as you like it."

Xie Lang led Chen Yu into the bar where Ji Ming'an's band was stationed.

The bar is underground. Going down the stairs, the closer you get, the louder the sound. The moment the door is opened, it is deafening.

Xie Lang covered Chen Yu's ears in advance, blocking part of the volume.

After a few seconds, he loosened up a little.

"Xie Lang, you're back?" A boy wearing denim jacket, jeans, and an afro head came up to him. He was clearly in a bar, the lights were dim, and he was wearing big sunglasses. There was a stud on the wing of his nose, which was very shiny.

Seeing Chen Yu beside Xie Lang, he took off his sunglasses and narrowed his eyes, "A new face, your friend?"

Xie Lang cherishes words like gold, "Yes."

The boy whistled, "You look so good."

He bent down and approached Chen Yu, "Little friend, are you an adult yet? Do you want to play together?"

Chen Yu gradually got used to this deafening noise, and heard the boy's words clearly, dissatisfied, "I'm an adult!"

Immediately add, "Don't."

The boy still wanted to talk, but Xie Lang had already dragged Chen Yu away, and when he passed the boy, he warned: "Don't call him a kid, it's not something you can call him.

Don't approach him either, stay away from him. "

Passed through the crowd, came to the booth inside, and took Chen Yu to sit down.

On the stage, a band had just finished singing, and the audience cheered and applauded continuously, almost toppling the roof over with enthusiasm.

Chen Yu was a little cautious, holding his pants with both hands, his muscles tensed.

"What do you want to drink?" Xie Lang asked, "Do you want to drink?"

Chen Yu shook his head again and again, remembering the last time he poured a can of beer, and there was no memory afterwards, so he must not repeat the same mistakes, "Juice is fine."

Xie Lang called the waiter, ordered juice for Chen Yu, and asked for another platter.

He opened a can of beer by himself, drank it slowly, and noticed that Chen Yu's eyes were turning around, and gradually, his tense muscles began to relax.

Like a small animal that accidentally ran into the human world.

First, stick out a small head, look around, and when you are sure it is safe, you will have sex and crawl out of the hole completely.

Xie Lang watched, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

Holding the cup in both hands, Chen Yu sipped the fruit juice. Seeing several people coming around to say hello to Xie Lang, he couldn't help being curious, "Do you come here often? They all know you."

The music was very loud, but Xie Lang couldn't hear it clearly, so he bent down, "What did Xiaoyu say?"

Chen Yu stuck his head over to Xie Lang's ear, and repeated the question again.

Xie Lang looked down at him and replied, "Very often, Ji Mingan's band often performs here, and he will pull me over."

Chen Yu was puzzled, "Isn't Ji Mingan a student?"

Yesterday, the dean said that he was wearing the uniform of No. [-] Middle School. Later, Xiao Shiqi told him that No. [-] Middle School is one of the best schools in X City.

"Yes, he's from No. [-] Middle School. He's a senior in high school this year." Xie Lang shook the beer in his hand, raised his head and took a sip, his voice smelled of alcohol, "He just wanted to play in a band, and his parents didn't agree, so he went to x city.

His grandparents can't control him, he is free here, he can play however he wants. "

Chen Yu nodded, this is the end of the question, no more.

At this time, the roar of the lead singer on the stage stopped.

The audience also fell silent.

A few seconds later, the scream sounded again, it was countless times louder than before, and it could go straight into the sky.

Chen Yu was taken aback, and instinctively leaned towards Xie Lang.

Xie Lang patted his head reassuringly, "It's okay, Ji Mingan's band is going to play, and half of the people in this bar are here for them."

Chen Yu was shocked.

Is Ji Mingan that good? !

"Yeah, he's got a really good band," Sheran said.

Chen Yu blinked and was dazed for a moment, "How do you know what I'm thinking?"

"It's all written on his face." Xie Lang lightly poked Chen Yu's soft cheeks, and smiled, "It's so soft."

Chen Yu took off Xie Lang's finger, and frowned, "Don't poke."

Xie Lang withdrew his hand in kindness, raised his eyes and glanced at the stage, seeing that Ji Mingan and the others were ready, he said, "It's about to start."

In the next second, the strong rhythm tore through the air and rushed over with strength.

Chen Yu only felt the sound of "Ding", the world was instantly cleared, and all people and things disappeared, leaving only him, Xie Lang, and the dazzling Ji Mingan on the stage.

In his eyes and ears, there is only the band on the stage, and the shocking rhythm.

A song ends.

Chen Yu was extremely excited, his heart was beating fast, and he was still immersed in the atmosphere.

Xie Lang handed him a glass of water: "Drink water, moisturize your throat."

Chen Yu couldn't help it just now, and shouted along with the others, all the emotions in his chest were just vented out.

Very cool.

After drinking the water quickly, Chen Yu spoke to Xie Lang, his tone of excitement couldn't be hidden, "It's great! This feeling is so comfortable."

Chen Yu's reaction was within Xie Lang's expectation, after all, Ji Mingan's talent in music convinced him, and he was also shocked when he heard their band's performance for the first time, but he was still upset.

In particular, those clear, bright eyes no longer only looked at him, but reflected into other people.

Xie Lang got up suddenly, and Chen Yu followed suit, "?"

"Xiaoyu, come with me." He brought Chen Yu to the side of the stage, "Stand here and look at me."

? ?

What do you mean?

Chen Yu was full of question marks, before he could ask, Xie Lang had already jumped onto the stage, approached Ji Mingan, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Ji Mingan raised his eyebrows, poked his head again, and looked in Chen Yu's direction.

Smiling and waving at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was totally out of shape, but he listened to Xie Lang's words and stood where he was, staring intently at Xie Lang on the stage.

Xie Lang took the guitar from Ji Mingan, sat down on the high stool, put one foot on the ground and the other foot on the pedal, in a relaxed posture. Ji Mingan also adjusted the height of the microphone for Xie Lang himself.

The light hit him, softening his appearance, like a prince who just walked out of a fairy tale.

Xie Lang turned his head, his gentle eyes fell on Chen Yu, and his unique voice was transmitted to every corner of the bar through the microphone.

"Xiaoyu, let me sing this song for you."
