Chapter 14: Days of Despair (3)

"Yueming, where did you go, why didn't you bring your phone?" As soon as Wu Yueming stepped on the stairs on the third floor, he heard Tang Xiaogang's voice, and his face was full of anxiety.

"Didn't I bring my phone? Maybe I forgot. Wu Yueming put the storage box at the head of the bed and picked up the mobile phone on the desk, which showed that there were six missed calls, all of which were from Tang Xiaogang. Xiaogang, I'll remember to bring my phone next time. ”

"Well, next time you must remember, where did you go? I thought you, I thought it was ......" Tang Xiaogang's face finally calmed down, but his voice still sounded a little hurried.

"I went to see Ruochen's parents," Wu Yueming said, touching the necklace on his chest.

"Are they okay?" I don't know why Tang Xiaogang felt stupid to ask again, how could Lei Ruochen's parents be okay now?

"It's okay" Wu Yueming raised his head and looked at Tang Xiaogang, as if he remembered something, "Did you call me for something?" ”

"I just wanted to ask you what you want to eat at noon, so I brought it to you by the way, but six calls were not answered, so I hurried back."

"Have you eaten it?" Wu Yueming asked.

"Not yet, why don't we go get some food together."

"I'm not hungry, you can eat by yourself." Wu Yueming began to adjust the paints to be used in the painting.

"Alright then, call me if anything, and your phone must be carried with you."

After Tang Xiaogang left, Wu Yueming didn't draw immediately but stared at the bedside storage box in a daze, and now he didn't want to open the diary immediately. Wu Yueming looked at it like this, in a daze for a long time. In the end, he couldn't help but open the book.

Wu Yueming casually flipped to a page, which happened to be the diary he wrote on his last birthday. That day, he remembered that he boldly kissed Lei Ruochen.

"Damn, that guy Wu Yueming actually kissed me secretly in an unexpected way, it's really hateful. The key is ......, and the key is that I didn't react at all, didn't scold him, and didn't give him a slap. What happened to me? Lei Ruochen put a big question mark here, and then continued to write.

"Do I really like Etsuna? It's also a little, I can't figure it out myself. Maybe I know I really like Etsuna. Well, maybe I've been in love with this guy for a long time, and I've been unconsciously liking him since the painting he gave me for my birthday last year. To be honest, it feels good to be with Eshina, I can feel that he understands me and loves me all the time. Well, I don't understand why he liked that Danish philosopher Kierkegaard so much. Oops, my face is still red, I just ran into my dad in the living room on the first floor, he won't find anything, right? Alas! Off-the-beaten-name, you know? You're doing me a disservice. But I'm cooperating with you voluntarily. Yueming, can you tell me in advance before kissing me next time? But will I allow you to do so? ”

Wu Yueming's tears began to fall again, and after reading this diary, he no longer had the courage to turn it down. He carefully put the diary into the storage box, and lay on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze, as if he could see Lei Ruochen as long as he looked through the ceiling.

In the haze, Wu Yueming felt that Tang Xiaogang had come back to Gangmingju, but he left quickly, and he also talked to him, as if he had brought food back, or fish-flavored shredded meat, and asked him to eat it while it was hot, not cold.

I don't know how long it took, Wu Yueming heard the ringtone of his mobile phone, and it was Tang Xiaogang calling.

"Yue Ming, have you eaten the lunch at noon?"

"It doesn't seem to be," Wu Yueming replied, he didn't know if he had gotten up from bed to eat halfway, or had been lying in bed until now.

"Okay, so what do you want for the night?" Wu Yueming heard Tang Xiaogang's sigh.

"No, I'm not hungry."

Wu Yueming got up from the bed, threw the cold lunch into the trash, and began to paint. He drew Lei Ruochen when he was writing a diary.

The door opened, and Wu Yueming saw Xu Tingjuan and Tang Xiaogang each coming back with a shopping bag and placing it on Tang Xiaogang's desk.

"Yue Ming, your face doesn't look very good, how can you do it without eating, Xiaogang and I went to the supermarket to buy apples, some biscuits and bread, and instant noodles." Xu Tingjuan said that she walked up to Wu Yueming and thought about what he was painting. In fact, Xu Tingjuan's face was also gloomy.

"Tingjuan, Xiaogang. Thank you. The brush in Wu Yueming's hand did not stop.

Tang Xiaogang and Xu Tingjuan tried their best to find some topics to talk to Wu Yueming, and half an hour passed, and neither of them said a word. In the end, Tang Xiaogang said: "Yue Ming, we are going to study at night, remember to carry your mobile phone with you, and you must eat something." ”

After Xu Tingjuan and Tang Xiaogang left, Wu Yueming was still sitting motionless on the stool, except for his right hand holding a paintbrush. He sat and painted like this, until Tang Xiaogang returned to Gangmingju after self-study in the evening, and he was still sitting on that stool.

Tang Xiaogang saw that the two plastic bags on the desk were still in their original appearance, so he walked past Wu Yueming and snatched Wu Yueming's paintbrush.

"Give it to me" Wu Yueming looked at Tang Xiaogang without a trace of waves on his face, Tang Xiaogang was frightened by his expression, returned the brush, and then said: "Yueming, what do you want to do?" Lei Ruochen, she has left you forever, she is dead, dead. ”

Tang Xiaogang said with a chest bowing together, he said the words that had been backlogged in his heart for a long time, and he must let Wu Yueming recognize this fact. He thought that Wu Yueming would rush over and punch him, or at least yell at him in anger, but none of this happened, Wu Yueming just stopped the paintbrush in his hand, looked at him with godless eyes, and said, "I know."

The calm "I know" made Tang Xiaogang panic, and he was stunned as if he had been shocked. After so many years of mixing with Wu Yueming, he thought that both sides had become roundworms in each other's stomachs. Now it seems that it was a big mistake, this sudden accident distorted all the tracks of life. I don't know how long it took, Tang Xiaogang dragged his two legs into the bathroom to take a shower, and then fell on the bed to watch a movie, Wu Yueming was still painting motionless, as if the painting would never be finished. He had already finished watching a movie and was a little sleepy, but when he saw that Wu Yueming was still sitting on a stool, he decided to watch another movie, he wanted to see how long Wu Yueming could draw.

Halfway through Tang Xiaogang's third movie, Wu Yueming went to bed, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and he fell directly on the bed without going to the toilet. Be sure to go to the toilet before going to bed, this phenomenon similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder will disappear at this time. I didn't eat the biscuits, bread or instant noodles in the shopping bag.
