After Zhang Shuqiu, Yu Chuan, and Qu Yingying freshened up, they leaned back on the sofa in the hall on the second floor and helped each other dry their hair.

Yu Chuan blew Zhang Shuqiu's hair, and suddenly took out a white hair from it: "Xiaoqiu, you have white hair, it seems that there are quite a lot." ”

Zhang Shuqiu smiled helplessly: "It's not just today, it's old, how much hair falls out, not to mention white hair." ”

Qu Yingying pulled the chestnut hair on her head and said, "It's not, it hasn't been long since it was dyed, and it seems that it will be this age in a flash." ”

Yu Chuan unplugged the hair dryer socket, cleaned the hair that had fallen on the ground, and grabbed it in his hand, it was a handful, and he suddenly felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable. Zhang Shuqiu looked at the indescribable melancholy on the faces of the two, and the corners of his mouth raised: "Have a drink?" There is osmanthus sweet rice wine, which is slightly hot and delicious. ”

Qu Yingying sniffed and said, "Okay, we haven't been together like this for a long time, when Xiaoqiu is not there, every day is busy with work and family, or you will enjoy it." After speaking, he suddenly felt more uncomfortable, his eyes gradually became hot, he took several deep breaths, but he still didn't stop, and tears came out of his eyes like that.

Yu Chuan leaned on the sofa, couldn't hold back for a while, and cried silently.

The three of them had mixed feelings in their hearts, and Zhang Shuqiu just bit his lip tightly with his teeth to prevent himself from crying. When people reach middle age, they have their own troubles. Those tears, some fell for themselves, and some were shed for the other two people, not for any purpose, just to relieve the emotions in their hearts.

The sound of sobbing in the room continued for a while, and Zhang Shuqiu twisted a hot towel for both of them, and then went downstairs to get the wine.

The three of them drank a plate of shredded squid and drank the pot of warm sweet rice wine, relaxing and comfortable.

Yu Chuan brought up the words of the afternoon again: "Yingying, come, talk about your Cheng Ke." ”

Qu Yingying smiled and shook her head: "You are a gossip ancestor." ”

Zhang Shuqiu pushed Qu Yingying and said, "I also want to listen, say it quickly." ”

Qu Yingying couldn't stand the two of them pulling one by one, so she had to open the chatterbox.

Cheng Ke and Qu Yingying grew up in a factory dormitory area, Cheng Ke's mother is Qu Yingying's primary school Chinese teacher, the two families originally lived in the same building, Cheng's family lived on the fifth floor, Qu's family lived on the second floor, Cheng Ke was one year older than Qu Yingying, and the two almost grew up together.

Hearing this, Yu Chuan smiled and squeezed his eyes at Zhang Shuqiu: "This is an authentic childhood sweetheart." ”

Qu Yingying smiled bitterly when Yu Chuan said: "Actually, my mother told me later, saying that both adults have that meaning, especially after we went to high school, we didn't grow crooked, and our grades were about the same, so I had that thought." ”

"Then why did you go to teach alone for so many years?" Zhang Shuqiu said curiously.

"How do you know he's going to teach?" Qu Yingying was surprised.

"You don't know, when we came out of the hospital that day, he stopped us and talked for a long time. It seems that it should be sincere......" Zhang Shuqiu replied.

"I feel like you didn't have any contact when you were in college, what the hell is going on?" Yu Chuan carefully recalled the past, but he couldn't find any clues of Cheng Ke.

"We did break off contact at that time, and we haven't been in touch. Probably since my junior year of high school, we haven't been in touch. Qu Yingying nodded.

"Then according to age, you are in your third year of high school, he should finish the college entrance examination and go to college, is it because he fell in love with other girls in college?" Yu Chuan continued to ask.

"If it's that simple, it's good, at least I can't see it, I can't think of it, and I won't be so heartbroken." Qu Yingying's smile was only bitter.

Cheng Ke has been influenced by his mother since he was a child, especially likes poetry and songs, and his grades in Chinese, history, and politics are very good, but mathematics and English are very average.

Qu Yingying's grades have always been very balanced, and there should be no problem in taking the entrance examination, so the two made an appointment to apply for the National Normal University together and become teachers together in the future.

At that time, Cheng Ke, in Qu Yingying's eyes, was shining. Cheng Ke is very talented, has a wide range of hobbies, likes literature, likes music, and also formed a band at school.

At that time, there were very few people with air conditioning, and everyone liked to cool off on the rooftop. When Cheng Ke sang to Qu Yingying playing the guitar on the rooftop, she felt that the rooftop was the sweetest place in the world, the night breeze was slightly cool, and the first love engraved in the memory of young boys and girls was so beautiful......

During the summer vacation of her sophomore year of high school, Qu Yingying had a good friend Han Lu, who often played at her house because she moved to the vicinity of Qu Yingying's house. Han Lu is also a person who loves to talk, laugh and sing, Qu Yingying belongs to the five tones, but Han Lu sings very beautifully. When enjoying the shade on the rooftop at night, Han Lu and Cheng Ke were also very familiar with each other. Cheng Ke and they often joke that they want Han Lu to be the lead singer of their band.

At that time, the summer was so happy that people were willing to let time stand still.

Later, on Cheng Ke's birthday, Han Lu took a bath and went to the rooftop, but when Qu Yingying went up, she didn't see Han Lu. The little friend next to her said that Han Lu wanted to go to the bathroom, and it was inconvenient for Qu Yingying to take a bath at home, so Cheng Ke took her to his house to go to the bathroom.

Qu Yingying didn't care, and continued to joke with other friends to kill time, and everything was as usual that night, but when Han Lu and Cheng Ke came back, Qu Yingying found that Cheng Ke's clothes seemed to be worn backwards.

The next morning, when the sun came out and the temperature began to rise, everyone woke up and was about to move the mat downstairs, only to find that something was wrong.

Cheng Ke's T-shirt is worn backwards inside and out, and the color is not right, but the one Han Lu wore was not her Qu Yingying's T-shirt, it was a birthday gift she bought for Cheng Ke.

The first day was Cheng Ke's birthday, he always liked to wear a black T-shirt, Qu Yingying bought him a birthday gift, she also wanted to buy herself an identical one, but she was afraid of other people's jokes, so she bought a navy blue. The night before, she originally wanted to wear that dress, but when Han Lu was taking a shower at her house, she found that she didn't bring a top, so she directly took her new dress and put it on. Although Qu Yingying felt uncomfortable, she just borrowed clothes to wear, and it was hard to say anything, so she left it to her.

In the night, black and navy blue are almost identical, and nothing can be seen at all. Qu Yingying was still very happy to see Cheng Ke wearing the birthday gift she gave that night. But I didn't expect that they just went to borrow a bathroom, and the clothes on their bodies were adjusted.

Of course, Qu Yingying is not a fool, and she naturally understands what is going on at this glance, and her face turns pale. Cheng Ke saw her bent on the ground motionless, only then did he notice the details of the clothes on his body, and of course he knew why Qu Yingying was this, only Han Lu still worked hard to help Qu Yingying collect the pillow and told her to go downstairs.

Qu Yingying had forgotten how she went downstairs that day, she didn't dare to look at Cheng Ke at a glance, she was afraid that she would explode on the spot, this kind of young boy and girl having sex, at that time, it could be regarded as an ugly thing, anger, shame and sadness, all pressed in her heart. When she got home, she sent Han Lu away and lay in bed all day.

But Cheng Ke never appeared.

After hearing this, Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu couldn't help but gasp, and they didn't know what to say.

For Qu Yingying, this may be an old scar that will never heal, and now, that person appears in front of her again, when more than ten years have passed, especially now that she has experienced many years of struggle, what will it mean that the once sharp and bloody knife will appear again?

Later, Cheng Ke went to college. Han Lu appeared at school for some reason, some people said that she transferred schools, some people said that she dropped out of school, and some people said that she was pregnant and had a heavy hemorrhage......

Qu Yingying didn't know what to believe, but was silent. But after all, she used to be the best friend with Han Lu, classmates who like gossip always think that she will know something, and they like to come to her for verification of any news, every time she hears this name, it makes her uncomfortable, and she doesn't have the courage to verify it.

At that time, Qu Yingying felt that this senior year of high school was a cage, and the sooner she rushed out, the farther away from the present, the better. She is no longer like before, in order to be able to go to a university with Cheng Ke, as long as her grades are like that. At that time, she began to study hard, Cheng Ke went to college in the south, she was admitted to the north, and she was admitted to the foreign language college that only recruited one or two people in their city for a year.

"No wonder you rarely go back during the holidays, always with us, I thought for a while that you really couldn't open the pot at home, and you had to work to earn tuition!" Yu Chuan tried his best to bring the topic in a relaxed direction, Qu Yingying smiled and said, "It's okay, it's been so many years." ”

"So you haven't figured out what happened that day for so many years? Maybe not what you think? Zhang Shuqiu asked.

"I was so lucky, but then their reaction, didn't it say it all? If I was wrong, why didn't either of them show up later? Cheng Ke didn't even give me an explanation, isn't it just that he can't explain! Qu Yingying smiled bitterly.

"That's right, in fact, I think this kind of thing happened at that time, especially your relationship, it was just ...... No wonder you can't get by. Yu Chuan nodded.

"Then the relationship between the two of you is almost considered to have crossed the road in front of your parents, and the adults of the two families have not interfered?" Zhang Shuqiu asked.

"Teacher Lin is Cheng Ke's mother, and later when my family held a college banquet, she stopped me and asked once. But what do you say to me? I couldn't say anything at all, so I could only call her home and ask Cheng Ke. My mother also asked, she saw that my grades had suddenly improved dramatically, and I was easy to learn, which was very strange, and I could only vaguely say anything. Qu Yingying replied.

"No wonder I think Cheng Ke means that, your mother seems to be quite happy to match the two of you." Chapter Shuqiu Road.

Yu Chuan suddenly asked about Qu Yingying's previous marriage: "You suddenly married Song Wei after graduating from college, won't it have anything to do with this?" ”

Qu Yingying paused and replied: "I went home, and I heard that Han Lu also went to the southwest to teach......

Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu were stunned for a while and didn't know what to say, but Qu Yingying's face was even more bitter: "Hey, I am the way I am now, I blame myself, but I pity my Xiaobao." ”

"So, what about that Han Lu? Cheng Ke came back and didn't make this clear to you? Yu Chuan asked.

Qu Yingying shook her head and said, "I don't want to ask about these things now, besides, Xiaobao is sick, how can I be in the mood to think about these things." ”

"So what are you going to do now? I think he seems to have made up his mind. Zhang Shuqiu asked.

"I don't know, this kind of thing can be done without making up your mind, and besides, I don't have any other thoughts now, as long as Xiaobao can be fine, these are not things." Qu Yingying smiled reluctantly.

Yu Chuan and Zhang Shuqiu glanced at each other, knowing that it was difficult for Qu Yingying to listen to what they said at this time. Yu Chuan simply changed the topic and said to Zhang Shuqiu: "Come on, come on, it's your turn, that Ning someone, what's going on?" ”

Zhang Shuqiu shrugged his eyebrows and said, "How do I know what's going on, it's inexplicable." ”

Qu Yingying was puzzled: "I'm really a little uncomfortable, I forgive a lot, he is actually friends with your brother." So what is his relationship with you? Why haven't I heard you talk about it before? ”

"It doesn't matter if you didn't say it. He didn't talk about what he used to do, he was talking to himself. Zhang Shuqiu didn't care.

"Ha, you make it like a blank memory, if you really don't know each other, why don't people talk to me, or to Yingying, what happened before? Just looking for you? Yu Chuan sneered.

"You remember I told you that I taught a classmate with a broom when I was in high school, right?"

Yu Chuan's eyes lit up for a while: "Remember, you are a rare glorious deed, just that girl, copied your homework and beat you upside down, that thing, right?" ”

"Well, didn't that girl stop me on the road at the beginning and wanted to beat me, Ning Ye happened to pass by and helped me out." Zhang Shuqiu pouted.

"Ah, heroes save beauty, it's a good start." Qu Yingying said with a smile.

"What a mess, if he doesn't solve the siege, maybe the things behind him are not so complicated." Zhang Shuqiu shook his head and said.

"That's right, it's easy to dodge with open guns, it's hard to defend against hidden arrows, and it's troublesome to cut people with small knives." Yu Chuan nodded.

"He's sure he's still feeling good about himself, does he know what's going on?" Qu Yingying asked.

"Yes, I remember that the broom in my hand seems to have been taken by him, when my brother went out to compete." Zhang Shuqiu nodded.

"That smart man like him, I'm afraid he has already figured it out." Yu Chuan thought for a while, and then analyzed: "You must have something to do behind you, I don't think that person is such a boring person, and I heard that his background is amazing, and he is a doctoral graduate from a prestigious university, not to mention that his eyes are above the top, but that gaze must also be above our sentient beings." ”

"You're an eighth woman, you changed your name to eight women! So easy to inquire. Zhang Shuqiu said angrily.

Qu Yingying stood firmly on Yu Chuan's side and said: "Such a person, for our company, is important information, and it should be clarified." As for you, who don't care, you know everything, but you just don't say it. ”

"Ha, have any of you asked me? Just a phone call to call me back and be on standby, didn't I come back obediently? "Zhang Shuqiu doesn't carry this pot.
