Chapter 33: Text Messages
When night fell, Cheng Shiyu closed the curtains, turned off the lights, then took out the sushi bought from the supermarket from the refrigerator, opened a pack of potato chips, and then called up the recent popular variety show from the TV, just shrunk on the sofa and quickly sat up, and took out a bottle of soju from the refrigerator.
The variety show made Cheng Shiyu laugh from time to time, and there was a sudden knock at the entrance, Cheng Shiyu was caught off guard when she ate half of Cannes, she stuffed the sushi in her mouth, stood up and walked to the door, looked at the cat's eyes, and then opened the door.
"Hmmmm..." Cheng Shiyu's mouth was full of words that he couldn't speak, it was Lin Qingzhe standing outside, he walked in very consciously when he saw Cheng Shiyu open the door, Cheng Shiyu closed the door and followed behind him, he put down everything in his hand and turned on the light, "Why don't you turn on the light, watching TV like this hurts your eyes." ”
"You don't have to worry, swallow the stuff and talk about it, like a hamster." Seeing Cheng Shiyu chewing quickly in order to swallow better, he reached out and pinched her bulging cheeks, Yu Guang saw that he had already eaten half a box of sushi, and sighed a little regretfully: "It seems that I'm late again, have you eaten enough?" ”
Cheng Shiyu finally swallowed everything in her mouth, she shook her head, "No, I didn't eat at noon and I'm very hungry now, why are you here again?" ”
"What? Hate me. Lin Qingzhe said, turned around and opened the crisper box like the food he brought, and then placed it on the dining table, "Why else do you want to come, I want to see you." ”
"Uh... Hahaha" Lin Qingzhe has been speaking more and more directly recently, Cheng Shiyu didn't know how to take this and could only laugh dryly, but fortunately, Lin Qingzhe didn't feel embarrassed, he naturally pulled out a chair and sat down after setting up the box, "Hurry up and eat, do you want me to bring your half box of sushi?" ”
"No, no, eat what you bought, I'll eat the sushi tomorrow morning." Cheng Shiyu sat down with him, "Is this time to get off work?" You've been leaving work late lately. ”
"Yes, I took a leave of absence this morning, and I will definitely be a little busy in the afternoon." Lin Qingzhe seemed to be hungry, he stuffed a piece of roasted eggplant into his mouth, and then said indistinctly while burning his breath: "My brother has a birthday today... The family got together and cooked a meal for him. ”
"Birthday?" That grandma's eldest grandson seems to be on his birthday today? This thought flashed through Cheng Shiyu's mind, and she regarded it as a coincidence, and then she asked, "Isn't his birthday banquet the end of the month?" ”
"The one at the end of the month is fake, just for flattery in the business circle, you know." Lin Qingzhe shrugged helplessly, "My family still pays more attention to the sense of ceremony, and I think it's better to spend my birthday with the closest people." ”
"I also gave Feng Qiao as an assist, I talked to my brother for a long time at noon today and asked him to ask Feng Qiao to be with him at night." Lin Qingzhe said with a bit of pride: "My brother is too unenlightened, and they are now relying solely on me for advice." ”
"But it's terrible to break you, they are really a match." Cheng Shiyu smiled, narrowed his eyes, and then looked at Lin Qingzhe enviously, "It's so good, I've always wanted to have a clean birthday, just to be happy with my friends or family." ”
"It's a pity that my birthday has been a trading ground for as long as I can remember." Cheng Shiyu said and sighed, "But it's okay, my good friends will spend one with me at noon every year." ”
Lin Qingzhe stared at Cheng Shiyu's bright pupils quietly, she probably didn't even notice that she would have an uncontrollable smile when she talked about them, "Feng Qiao and Su Miao, they are very important to you, right?" ”
"Of course." Cheng Shiyu replied without thinking, "They are my two most important friends, the most important and the most important!" ”
"Ah, this unreserved partiality, envy." Lin Qingzhe asked her jokingly, "Is Tang Minghao so important?" ”
"Uh... It doesn't feel the same. Cheng Shiyu frowned, and this time she thought about it seriously before saying, "Qiaoqiao and Su Su are like sisters and family members who can confide in me without reservation, and they will support me and maintain me unconditionally." ”
"But Minghao is more like a person to me in comparison... Brother? He's reliable, he's sober. Cheng Shiyu said: "But that's all, there is such a barrier between us, we don't talk about everything, just give each other advice and be a listener when necessary." ”
"That's good." Lin Qingzhe listened carefully to what she said and then replied without being salty, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a little starlight in his eyes.
After the words of this sentence fell, the two of them didn't say anything more, just chatting occasionally from time to time, and after eating, Lin Qingzhe took the initiative to invite her, "Do you want to walk down there together?" ”
It's almost June, and the night air is no longer crisp but warm, and the air is filled with an indescribable smell of leaves.
said that he was walking outside, but in fact, he just sent Lin Qingzhe to the door of the community, looking at the starry sky, Lin Qingzhe suddenly said, "Our high school is going to be demolished." ”
"Demolition?" Cheng Shiyu was surprised: "How can it be demolished?" Isn't it a private high school? ”
"Yes, I heard what my brother said at noon, it is said that the campus will be merged with Huihua, and the original site will be changed into a primary school after that."
"Ah..." Cheng Shiyu opened her mouth several times and didn't know what to say, although she hadn't gone back to see it for so many years, but in the end, it was also the most important point in her youth and girlhood, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
"Okay, okay, I'm just telling you this, don't show such a sad expression." Lin Qingzhe touched her head and made an appointment with her, "While there are no demolitions and changes, do you want to go shopping together?" ”
“... Good. Cheng Shiyu nodded, she felt an indescribable sadness, as if she had lost something, the two of them walked to the door of the community in silence, she took the initiative to say goodbye to Lin Qingzhe, "Go home and pay attention to safety." ”
On the way home, she was in a daze, she was walking home completely by intuition, a boy who was running at night suddenly bumped into her, she fell unsteadily on the lawn next to her, and the mobile phone she was holding loosely in her hand also fell to the ground, the boy didn't know why he actually ran forward two steps forward and kicked her mobile phone out for a long distance only to find that she fell to the ground, Cheng Shiyu was very angry, her palm hurt hotly, and the two feelings were mixed together so that she couldn't help but want to scold the boy.
But before the words he wanted to scold were spoken, the boy actually ran over first, pulled her wrist up, and then apologized to her: "I'm sorry, sister, it's too dark, I didn't see you clearly." ”
Too dark? There is a street light every two steps in the community, and any light bulb can blind your eyes, and you tell me it's too dark???
But after all, he was also at fault, Cheng Shiyu just complained "Look at it next time" and then prepared to pick up the phone, but when he fell on the lawn, his knee hit the stone steps next to him, and now his left leg has a spasmodic pain.
The boy was very good at reading colors this time, and he helped Cheng Shiyu to let go of Cheng Shiyu's hand, "Sister, you stand here, I'll pick it up for you." ”
Cheng Shiyu listened to him and didn't say anything, the boy trotted to pick up the phone, but after picking up the phone, he kept his back to Cheng Shiyu fiddling with something, and he didn't return it for a long time, Cheng Shiyu suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and jumped over on one leg, "What the hell are you doing?" I don't know, isn't it rude to mess around with other people's things? ”
But when she jumped over with her legs crossed, she saw the boy looking like he was about to cry: "I'm sorry, sister, I broke your screen for you." ”
She snatched the phone and looked at it, it was not serious, it was just a small scum, it may not be obvious if you look closely, seeing the boy's panicked appearance, she said comfortingly, "Forget it, it's not serious anyway, but you must be careful not to hit people again in the future." ”
"Okay, thank you, sister." The boy nodded gratefully, then held her arm until her leg eased.
Back at home, Cheng Shiyu took out the medical kit and sat on the sofa to detoxify his knees.
After finishing the poison and putting away the medical kit, she returned to the bedroom and lit the candle as usual, Cheng Shiyu has never been that kind of squeamish girl, and the wound is not very serious, so she didn't think much about it and went directly to the bathroom to take a bath.
When she came out of the shower, the amount of scented candles was almost lit, and she extinguished the candles and lay back on the bed.
Lin Qingzhe: I'm home.
After playing for a while, the news of Lin Qingzhe came to the mobile phone, and there was a hot pain from the friction between his knees and his back, and Cheng Shiyu took the opportunity to complain.
Cheng Shiyu: I hate it to death, I was hit when I just went home, and my phone was broken, not to mention that I choked a piece of skin on my knee.
Lin Qingzhe: Why are you so careless, you can still get injured after a short distance.
Lin Qingzhe: Hurry up and disinfect it, don't stop it because you're afraid of pain.
Lin Qingzhe didn't send a text, and he sent two voices in a row, and Cheng Shiyu comforted him, "I know, it's been dealt with." ”
Lin Qingzhe: That's okay, remember to pay attention to safety and don't be distracted, and when it's completely empty, we'll go and see.
Lin Qingzhe: It's not early, go to sleep, good night.
Cheng Shiyu: Okay, An An.
After saying goodnight to each other, Cheng Shiyu charged the phone, turned off the screen, and closed his eyes.
"Ding Dong", the sound of receiving a short message suddenly came from the mobile phone in the hazy consciousness, Cheng Shiyu was awakened in an instant, she unlocked the lock screen of the mobile phone, and the tired expression that was originally squinting gradually solidified the moment she saw the news.
"Does it make you sad that your high school was demolished? So sad that you don't even care about your own safety? ”
"No matter how sad you are, you have to pay attention to safety, it must hurt if you have a bruised knee, right? Is there still bloodshed? ”
Cheng Shiyu's body froze for a moment, the message was sent by an unfamiliar phone number, she didn't dare to move, she didn't dare to move, she didn't know what the situation was, but then a text message that made her creepy came again
"Aren't you looking at your phone, why don't you reply to my messages? At least tell me a word of peace and security. ”
