【Zhou Xiang】Gravity

1.

A school-wide mobilization meeting will be held at 01:30 p.m., and at [-]:[-], all classes and grades will gather and head to the gymnasium.

Because of his height, Sun Xiang walked last, next to Zhou Zekai.He started yawning when he left the classroom, and the autumn wind blew in his face, making him more drowsy, his eyelids drooping like glue.

Fortunately, Zhou Zekai grabbed him three times during the short 1-minute walk downstairs, otherwise Sun Xiang would probably have to go to the school hospital to deal with his broken forehead and knee.

"Didn't you sleep well?" Zhou Zekai hurriedly stopped Sun Xiang as he slammed into the trash can again, and couldn't help asking.

Sun Xiang's eyes were full of sleepiness: "Well... Lao Lu said that the last day of summer vacation should not be wasted. We formed a team to fight for the kun until four o'clock in the morning."

Then he yawned again.

The corner of Zhou Zekai's mouth twitched.

Compared with Sun Xiang, Lu Boyuan, who also stayed up all night, was full of energy, talking non-stop with his new tablemate.

"...the same routine every year, it's so boring. There's really no need to bring a notebook!" Lu Boyuan looked earnest.

It's a pity that the tablemate's appearance is as immobile as a mountain, and his heart is also as motionless as a mountain: "Teacher Wu said that in case there is something important to remember..."

"Listen to her talking nonsense!" Lu Boyuan frowned and broke his fingers for him, "You have to remember the main point. I'll give you a clue. Encourage senior high school students not to work hard now, and remind senior high school students not to jump too much. It's your turn right away, and then blow the wind to Gao Yi, brainwashing them to cherish the three years of good time, and the reincarnation experiment is where your dream begins. If you don't believe me, I will listen to it later!"

The deskmate was dubious: "Really?"

Sun Xiang was sobered up from the "It's your turn soon", now he smothered a smile and whispered to Zhou Zekai, "It turns out that Deyun Club is where old Lu Meng started."

Lu Boyuan wanted to turn his head and stare at him, but also wanted to lift his foot to kick him, and then he was horrified to find that Zhou Zekai was also suppressing his laughter in deep approval.

He didn't know Zhou Zekai very well, so he couldn't be presumptuous. Coupled with the "strange situation" at noon, he vaguely had the illusion that Sun Xiang and Zhou Zekai were on the same side.

2.

After the conference started, as expected by Lu Boyuan, the principal continued to fool the freshmen with the clichés from last year.

Sun Xiang was extremely bored, so he chose to perform his unique skill - "Standing Sleeping Dafa".

Zhou Zekai focused on listening to the speech on the stage at first, but he didn't notice it. After a while, he subconsciously glanced at Sun Xiang, and found that this guy seemed to be really sleeping?

Zhou Zekai: ...

After Peppa Pig, this is the second time he has realized that Sun Xiang is probably a multi-talented player.

Curious to "see if Sun Xiang fell asleep", Zhou Zekai stretched out his left hand, placed it in front of him, and shook it.

Sun Xiang remained silent.

"I can't do that." Du Ming just turned his head around, saw Zhou Zekai's little move, and blinked with interest, "I'll do it, you see."

Zhou Zekai was confused: "Oh."

"Next is the moment to witness the miracle." Du Ming magically took out a mechanical pencil, stretched it to Sun Xiang's armpit, and scratched it gently.

Sun Xiang shuddered: "Hahahahahahaha?! — Grass!"

"Crazy, Du Xiaoming!" Sun Xiang didn't have time to say this.

Because the atmosphere doesn't seem right.

Of course not!

While he was turning his head stiffly to look around, most of the class, as well as the members of the back row of Class 14 and Class 16 next door, all looked this way in unison.

...Zhou Zekai wanted to cover his face.There seemed to be a deep misunderstanding between him and Du Minghe.

3.

But it was too late to say anything at this time——Sun Xiang's "grass" successfully attracted the attention of Wu Yulan in the front row.

She rushed to the scene of the crime quickly, and fixed her stern eyes on Sun Xiang: "What are you talking about in the leader's speech? I will hand in the self-criticism before the evening self-study..."

"Teacher Wu," someone suddenly interrupted her speech without fear of death, it was Zhou Zekai, "I'm very dizzy."

His voice was hoarse and low.

Wu Yulan was taken aback for a moment, and her scrutinizing eyes turned to Zhou Zekai.Upon closer inspection, Zhou Zekai's expression was indeed as strange as his voice: "Are you sick?"

Zhou Zekai's apologetic expression did not seem to be fake: "I'm sorry, teacher, Sun Xiang was anxious to ask me about my situation..."

Apologizing first, and then interceding for others, is very in line with the personality of a kind and well-behaved top student.But Wu Yulan was very experienced, so she didn't believe it immediately.

She frowned and approached Zhou Zekai, reaching out to touch his forehead.

There was actually a thin layer of cold sweat.

Wu Yulan's expression immediately eased a lot: "Can you still insist on listening to the meeting?"

Zhou Zekai hesitated for a moment, pursed his lips and shook his head: "I want to go to the school hospital."

Wu Yulan was a little confused: "The teacher is not free right now, can you do it by yourself?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Xiang, who was still in shock at Zhou Zekai's acting skills, felt his sleeves being pulled suddenly.

With a jolt, he instantly connected to Zhou Zekai's brainwaves: "Teacher! I can! I can help him and take medicine for him!"

Wu Yulan hesitated.

At this moment, Zhou Zekai's body swayed without warning, and fell straight towards Sun Xiang.

In the blink of an eye, Sun Xiang grabbed his shoulder subconsciously, and the latter unceremoniously hung most of his weight on him.In the eyes of outsiders, it was Zhou Zekai who was quite uncomfortable in dizziness, and it was only Sun Xiang who could barely stand still.

This operation by him not only frightened Sun Xiang, but even Wu Yulan became visibly nervous, and waved her hand: "Go, go around from behind, keep quiet."

As soon as they both disappeared.Du Ming secretly took out his phone and sent a message in the new discussion group.

"Du Ming: What's going on with Zhou Zekai? To scare Sun Xiang like that, is he really sick or really acting?!"

4.

In fact, at one point, Sun Xiang really believed Zhou Zekai's "sudden physical discomfort".

Who would have thought that as soon as he left the gymnasium, Zhou Zekai would immediately return to his "normal walking" state.

"..." In Sun Xiang's heart, there was a certain illusion of being used up and throwing away.

"Sun Xiang?" Zhou Zekai noticed that Sun Xiang had stopped.

"It's the wrong direction to go to the classroom." Sun Xiang's expression was inexplicably complicated, "Or are you really planning to go to the school hospital?"

Zhou Zekai: "Yes."

Sun Xiang said disapprovingly: "Do a full set of acting? It's all out, isn't it necessary? And let me say first, I don't care if I'm exposed or not, and I don't want to owe you favors. But since you insist on going to the school hospital, accompany It doesn't matter if you go."

Zhou Zekai shook his head: "Don't follow me."

Sun Xiang: "Damn, of course I want to follow. Is it appropriate for you to act without me?"

Zhou Zekai seemed to want to say something else for a moment, but in the end he didn't say anything, acquiescing to Sun Xiang to follow.

5.

Sun Xiang never expected that the development of the story would take such a magical turn after he arrived at the school hospital.

…He originally thought that Zhou Zekai was just planning to "play a show", at most he would fool the doctor with a bad face and ask him to prescribe a few boxes of medicine for heatstroke or cold, but the doctor actually knew Zhou Zekai!And he nodded at him as soon as he entered the door: "Aren't you holding a meeting? You can also sneak out here. Yes."

Sun Xiang's expression changed.It's a pity that Zhou Zekai was seriously rolling up his sleeves and didn't notice.

The doctor checked Zhou Zekai's blood pressure, body temperature and pheromone concentration values, and then injected a special medicine.At this point in the process, Sun Xiang realized more and more clearly that Zhou Zekai had indeed come to "examine and see a doctor".

As soon as he left the school hospital, Sun Xiang couldn't wait to drag Zhou Zekai to the corner of the safe passage, his eyes burning: "...Fang Minghua knows the school doctor? Let him watch you for routine treatment?"

"Yeah. It needs to be injected," Zhou Zekai said, "once a day."

With a "boom" in Sun Xiang's mind: "Wait, so you've already thought up an excuse to pretend to be sick, and it's just a coincidence to help me?"

Zhou Zekai answered honestly, "Almost."

Sun Xiang's expression instantly became very strange.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and another deep breath, as if a storm was brewing in his eyes, "...so everything is a coincidence, right?"

Zhou Zekai finally sensed that Sun Xiang's state was not right: "Uh..."

"Why, don't you dare to answer?" Sun Xiang sneered, his emotions were swelling wildly, and he was about to rush out of his chest uncontrollably, "It's a coincidence to help me, it's also a coincidence to let me know that you need more than medicine, Well, you, Zhou Zekai, are so mature, you can handle everything by yourself, ah, you don’t need help, let alone tell me the truth, in short, my worry and nervousness are irrelevant to you..."

"No," Zhou Zekai tried to interrupt him, "You misunderstood—"

"Let me finish first!" Sun Xiang roared, and the hand by his side clenched into a fist at some point.Veins popped out of the back of his hand.Shows how hard he is gripping.He stared at Zhou Zekai fiercely, with real anger burning in his eyes, "...I admit, I am like an idiot! You had an accident that day and you were admitted to the ICU. I regretted it and was afraid! I wish I could slap myself! Then you After waking up, Fang Minghua and you comforted me calmly, saying that it was not my responsibility, but I felt even more guilty, and pretended that you were afraid that I would blame myself too much, so you deliberately pretended not to mind..."

"Sun Xiang—"

Zhou Zekai tried to interrupt again.It's a pity that Sun Xiang didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

He took a big step forward, the corridor space was already small, this step allowed him to directly force Zhou Zekai to the corner window.

The difference between the tips of their noses is less than 10 centimeters, and the emotions in their eyes can be clearly seen.For example, Sun Xiang's anger at the moment, Zhou Zekai at the moment... unexpectedly had the nerve to show that "first time I know" shocked expression.

This observation directly blew up Sun Xiang's deepest anger! "You fucking..." Sun Xiang paused, his chest rose and fell violently, and his breathing was short and chaotic.For a moment, Zhou Zekai almost thought that Sun Xiang was going to grab his collar and raised his fist to hit his face.

Sun Xiang did not.

He just tried to suppress his emotions, and then continued to talk about his feelings.

"Why am I so good at brainstorming? The result of my brainstorming is that I decided to try my best to compensate you! You said you want to be friends, okay, I mean it! I can't help but bring you a meal at noon, and I don't mind if you take the seat left for Lu Boyuan. It’s embarrassing to refuse, it’s good to only think about being at the same table, lest you be alone in the class and no one will play alone, my friends joked that I said I was sentimental, and I would spray them with crazy thoughts..."

Speaking of this, he spoke faster and faster, his voice became higher and higher, with undisguised anger, puzzlement and confusion, he threw his face at Zhou Zekai——

"I've never been so careful with a person in my life! Hehe, now I know, it turned out that from the beginning to the end, I was just self-indulgent! Self-righteous! Everything I did was funny and funny in your eyes! You watched the drama very well. Cool, you don’t even bother to tell me about this, right?!”

Sun Xiang's roar was earth-shattering, so much so that after several seconds, the echo still echoed in the empty corridor.

On the tree outside the corridor, the cicadas suddenly started to yell desperately.Makes you dizzy and upset.

The autumn afternoon sun shone through the window, passed Zhou Zekai, and landed on the young man with clenched fists, illuminating those red and moist eyes clearly.

Sun Xiang... crying?

Realizing this, not only Zhou Zekai was stunned, but Sun Xiang himself froze instantly like a stone statue.

This weird silence lasted for more than ten seconds. Sun Xiang suddenly cursed "fuck", wiped his face vigorously, turned around and ran away.

"Bang—" the sound of the security door echoed in the corridor.

Zhou Zekai stood where he was, with his back to the light, his expression unclear.

As if to match this scene, the cicadas outside the window suddenly became louder.
