Shen Xinyu has not yet graduated, and it is currently the summer of her junior year, she and her friends made an appointment to go to Hong Kong to play, which coincided with the Olympics, so she came to Beijing in advance to join in the fun. Shen Feibai was ready to give her the bedroom to live in, he slept on the sofa in the living room, Shen Xinyu bluntly refused: "Don't be so troublesome, I'll go to the hotel." ”

In a word, Shen Fei's white eyes turned to her, black and pure; The tone is steady, and I can't tell the joy and anger: "Whatever hotel you live in, you can live here." ”

Shen Xinyu looked around, the living room was narrow, the furniture was half-old and not new, the air conditioner was blowing with a slight noise, and the sofa sitting under his hips was uncomfortable.

"Brother, I have money." She blurted out, as if emphasizing.

"Is it your money?"

"......" Shen Xinyu choked.

Five words, he said slowly, without even a trace of ups and downs, not even a basic question, and his expression was very peaceful, tepid, as if he was just discussing a sparse and ordinary trivial matter with her. But Shen Xinyu knew that it was not a trivial matter, and he never thought it was a trivial matter.

"You are like that, and always will be. When Grandpa wanted to change your name, you refused to die. The same is true for the college entrance examination, when the wings are stiff, they fly out. From beginning to end, you see yourself as an outsider. ”

As she spoke, her eyes turned red and her head hung down, "Brother, you can obviously live better......"

It had only been ten minutes since she arrived home, and the atmosphere between the two of them quickly deviated in a direction that was out of control.

Shen Feibai didn't want to say too much, but reminded concisely: "Heart, don't forget your roots." ”

It's not light, it's not heavy, it's meaningful, and everything that should be dialed has been dialed.

Shen Xinyu's heart shook violently, buried his head, and muttered for a long time: "I've said it eight hundred times, don't call me Xinxin, it sounds like an 'orangutan'." ”

Before an answer could be given, time seemed to stand still.

Slowly, my cheeks swelled, like chickenpox, poofed and poofed, and I was so embarrassed that I wanted to raise my hand to cover it.

I didn't dare to look at him, I never dared to look at him, and I felt that I was wronged.

She quickly rushed to a critical point, she complained of grievances and strongly defended: "What do you want me to do? If you don't listen to grandpa, one of the two of us must be obedient, right? If I had been as stubborn as you, we would have drunk the northwest wind together. ”

Her eyes were red, she wanted to cry or not, Shen Feibai was silent, not comforted, did not comment, her eyes were blank, and she looked at her calmly.

Shen Xinyu's sense of grievance intensified, and he roared: "You can pursue the life you want, and I can also pursue mine." I'm not as pure and noble as you, I just want to stay by my grandfather's side and live a good life, I can swipe what I eat and wear, I can use whatever I use to get a card, and I can come to Beijing to book a plane ticket with Secretary Yang. I live a very comfortable and comfortable life like this, don't use your set of pies to restrict my freedom! ”

Words spoken, water spilled.

Shen Feibai got up and left without saying a word, Shen Xinyu suddenly had a panic that all the chickenpox on his face was scratched by himself, his mouth opened, his throat was blocked, and he couldn't spit out half a word.

The wooden door of the bathroom was half-hidden, and as soon as Shen Feibai pushed the door, Chen Xueyang, who was out of the scene, was actually inside.

There were two basins on the floor, one basin was soaked in laundry detergent, and he sat on a small bench, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he looked a little, as if he was getting to know him again.

"You want to use the bathroom?" Before he could speak, he scurried to his feet, and a pair of wet hands stained with foam washed under the water, "You use it first." ”

Shen Feibai didn't say anything, turned to the side, leaving him a way out.

He closed the door, dropped the latch, and heard Chen Xueyang's voice greeting outside: "Hi, hello, Feibai's sister, right, I'm Chen Xueyang, your brother's friend and roommate." ”

Shen Xinyu's voice was thin and weak: "Hello." ”

Shen Feibai turned on the faucet, picked up a handful of tap water and threw it on his face.

It's hot, the water temperature is not cold, with a little bit of dry heat. I want to wake up, I want to calm down, but it's useless, it has no effect at all.

He propped his hands on the sink, his head down, his chest rose and fell, some of the water on his face dripping down, some flowing down the chin along the facial line, all the way down the neck, and rolling into the short-sleeved neckline.

She was right, she was doing well, so good that she didn't dare to hope for it when she was young. He deviated from the norm and didn't ask about the future, that was his business, why bother to interfere with her.

However, my heart is uncomfortable, and I can't explain it. His sister shouldn't have been.

Which? He smiled wryly, indescribable.

Chen Xueyang came out, said hello to Shen Xinyu, changed his clothes and went out.

Shen Xinyu sat quietly for a long time, the more he waited, the more panicked he became, hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to knock on the door, "Brother-!" ”

There was no response, not even a single sound could be heard.

"Brother, brother, I was wrong, I apologize to you, don't ignore me."

"Brother, you speak!"

……

She kept banging on the door, so anxious that she wanted to cry.

The door opened, and Shen Feibai had already wiped the water clean, and there was nothing unusual on his face.

Shen Xinyu's eyes were as red as a rabbit, and he muttered with tears in his eyes: "Brother......"

Shen Feibai's face was calm, he raised his hand to touch her hair, and asked, "Are you hungry?" ”

Shen Xinyu shook his head: "I'm not hungry." "I'm embarrassed to look at him," my brother ...... I'm sorry. ”

She herself couldn't tell why she apologized, because of her previous words, or for her current life choices? She fell like smoke, and she was confused.

Although her voice was not loud, it was impossible for her brother not to hear it, but he came out of the bathroom and said as if he had not heard it: "There are two tomatoes in the refrigerator, just enough to make a piece of soup." ”

He walked past her, and she couldn't help it: "Brother......"

"You probably haven't eaten it, slices of soup are a food in the north." He spoke at the same time as her, smiling slightly.

Shen Xinyu pursed her lips: "No ......"

"I'm going to cook. There is a nice hotel nearby, and I will send you there after eating. ”

Shen Xinyu was taken aback, and didn't care about anything else, because he couldn't touch his feelings, and immediately said: "Brother, I won't stay in the hotel, you don't bother me, I'll live here." ”

The corners of Shen Fei's white eyebrows raised slightly, as if he was a little surprised by her sudden change, paused slightly, and said, "It's really inconvenient for you to live here, let's go to a hotel." ”

After speaking, without waiting for her to express her opinion, he turned around and went into the kitchen to make a piece of soup.

Shen Xinyu was sullen alone for a while, and then went listlessly to go around his room.

The bed was stiff, and she sat on the edge of the bed for a few seconds before getting up again and walking to the desk by the window. On the table is a laptop and a few books. The spread out notes did some information arrangement, and looking at the handwriting on the paper, she remembered a person.

She also copied her font, but in the end, it was so ugly that she couldn't show it at all. Unlike her brother, not only is the pen smooth, but also has a good learning, and he has practiced a chic and colorful calligraphy, which is like a skill and deep-rooted.

When you look at it, you can press down on a narrow strip of paper such as a ticket stub.

Draw it with two fingers, and the ticket to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games ......

The soup is dripping with sesame oil, and it is fragrant. Shen Xinyu really hadn't eaten it, and when she noticed that the atmosphere seemed to have eased, she asked curiously: "Brother, do you often study how to cook?" ”

In the past, at home, they would help their grandmother cook, but at that time, they didn't know how to do their skills, they just wanted to be full. What's more, there are very few condiments at home, and they don't pay attention to color and flavor. But now it's different, her brother is obviously willing to put a lot of effort into it, even the simplest base soup made of tomatoes and eggs, you can see the difference and eat it differently.

"Delicious?" Shen Feibai pondered the meaning of his words and asked.

Shen Xinyu praised without hesitation: "It's delicious, my brother is delicious in everything he does." ”

Shen Feibai was silent.

It's not that she often studies cooking, but keeps improving it in order to match her taste.

Thinking of Zhou Jiyou, I can't help but think of her sudden liver fire last night. He didn't mean anything else, he just thought, she bought such expensive tickets, would her living expenses be enough.

Seeing that he was silent, Shen Xinyu bit his lip and had nothing to say: "Brother, I saw two tickets on your table." ”

He paused and nodded lightly: "Hmm." ”

Shen Xinyu blinked and asked curiously, "Who are you going to watch the opening ceremony with?" ”

Shen Feibai's expression was calm: "No one." ”

She looked straight at him, silently asking: What about the two?

He sensed it, lifted his eyelids, and made a reasonable explanation: "It was sent by Taili." ”

"What a coincidence, I just came." Shen Xinyu's eyes lit up instantly, and he mentioned excitedly, "Let's go and see." ”

"It's fine."

"......" she was a little stunned, okay, why add a "also" in front......

***

In the evening, Zhou Jiyou sat in front of the computer and simply made an excel spreadsheet. The tutor introduced that the studio work was a rolling class, and recently recruited two new students, each with a different course progress, and she needs to do her best to clarify everyone's situation so that she can reformulate the teaching plan.

With her fingertips tapping lightly on the keyboard, the phone lit up on the left hand, and when her eyes swept over, the ringtone rang at the same time.

Her eyes lingered on the caller ID for a few seconds before she took it in her hand and pressed it to answer.

"Say."

"Xin......yu" He inexplicably paused for a second, and then continued, "Xinyu is here, I may not have time to go to you in the past two days." ”

Zhou Jiyou was stunned suddenly, and his temples tightened a little: "You don't need to report to me." ”

"Hmm. Have you eaten? His voice was unhurried, and he didn't seem to care what she said.

Zhou Jiyou snorted lightly, wanting to praise him for his ability to change the topic, but after thinking about it, where is it good, how can he not eat it.

She felt speechless: "Can I ask you to do it, can you pay attention to the time when you look for me in the future?" ”

"Hmm. What did you eat? The tone was clear, completely unaffected by her.

Zhou Jiyou took a deep breath silently: "Don't talk nonsense, if you have something to say, I'll hang up if it's okay." ”

"Something." The voice is low, like a breeze, caressing the eardrums.

Zhou Jiyou subconsciously took the phone a little farther away, rubbed the pinna with the back of his fingers, and then got a little closer, "What's the matter, be quick." ”

He was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "I want to talk to you." ”

“……”

Not only the eardrums, but also the heart trembled. The cold voice blocked back: "You are idle." ”

"Hmm. What did you eat? ”

“……”
