Chapter 5 You are not alone, you have us
He Chuan tidied up the racket, and dragged Qiu Ning, who couldn't walk, to find Xu Yi and Chi Nian.
"It's most comfortable to eat hot pot after exercising," He Chuan put the racket aside and leaned over to Xu Yi's side and said
Xu Yi heard He Chuan's voice, took off the earphone in his left ear, handed it to Chi Nian, said thank you, turned his head to look at He Chuan and asked, "What's the matter, you're done?"
He Chuan pointed to Qiu Ning, who was tired and tired beside him: "She is physically exhausted, and we will be over." ”
Xu Yi nodded, bent down and took out two bottles of sports drinks from the plastic bag and handed them to He Chuan.
He Chuan took the drink, handed Qiu Ning a bottle, opened his own bottle and drank half of it in one go.
Qiu Ning on the side used all her strength, and she didn't unscrew the cap, looking at the cap and sighing.
Xu Yi raised his eyebrows and motioned for He Chuan to look to the right, He Chuan turned his head and saw Qiu Ning's slightly resentful eyes, and asked stumblingly, "What's wrong?" ”
Qiu Ning snorted and looked up at He Chuan with disgust.
He Chuan looked confused, he really didn't know what he had done wrong.
"Qiu Ning, give it to me, I'll unscrew it for you."
"Thank you, Xu Yi."
Xu Yi unscrewed it and handed it to Qiu Ning, Qiu Ning took a sip and instantly felt that she could play badminton for half an hour again, her physical condition was much better, and her expression slowed down slightly.
He Chuan had been paying attention to the change in Qiu Ning's expression, and when he saw that she had eased up slightly, he pinched Qiu Ning's shoulder like a dog.
Qiu Ning hid and disliked He Chuan's bad skills, and He Chuan smiled flatteringly while chasing.
Chi Nian watched the awkward and interesting interaction between the two, smiled happily, she took off her headphones, turned off her mobile phone, and took a sip of the mineral water that Xu Yi put in her hand.
Qiu Ning was annoyed by He Chuan, stood up and planned to stay away from He Chuan, He Chuan saw Qiu Ning avoiding him, consciously followed Qiu Ning to stand up, chased Qiu Ning to pinch Qiu Ning's shoulder, Qiu Ning didn't want to be pinched by him, so he avoided He Chuan, He Chuan chased, Qiu Ning hid, He Chuan chased again, Qiu Ning hid again.
Chi Nian saw that the interaction between the two was interesting, and laughed, revealing a pair of little tiger teeth, and Xu Yi was stunned.
Xu Yi looked at Chi Nian's side face, and always felt that something was about to break out of the shell.
"Coo-coo-coo" Xu Yi's stomach made a hungry sound
Chi Nian smiled secretly when he heard the voice, Xu Yi glanced at Chi Nian's smile beside him, and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Okay, you two don't make trouble, let's go eat" Chi Nian looked at He Chuan and Qiu Ning who were frolicking in front of him
He Chuan stopped his nonsense, and Qiu Ning happily ran to Chi Nian's left and sat down, grimacing at He Chuan.
"Come to my house to eat hot pot," He Chuan suggested
Xu Yi nodded.
Chi Nian thinks it's okay.
Qiu Ning didn't speak.
"Then it's decided, come to my house to eat hot pot" He Chuan was very excited at the mention of eating hot pot.
The four of them took their belongings and came to He Chuan's house with a smile.
Although He Chuan's house is big, it is very warm.
The whole space illuminated by the warm lights, the white curtains blown by the soft evening breeze, a string of wind chimes jingled by the wind, the subtle sound of feet stepping on the floor, the hand-painted graffiti cushions on the fabric sofa, the sticky notes full of instructions everywhere, the 'He Chuan brand' handicrafts on the cabinets, the background wall pasted with He Chuan's growth footprints, two pairs of couple's slippers that are often worn at the door, and a notebook on the coffee table, which read, 'Xiaochuan, your father and I are not going home tonight, You remember to eat well, rest well, study well'.
He Chuan took out the ingredients that had been prepared long ago from the refrigerator and put them on a plate, He Chuan put a plate on it, and Qiu Ning brought a plate to the table.
Xu Yi was chopping vegetables, and He Chuan brought what he brought and what he cut.
Xu Yi is an emotionless vegetable cutting machine.
Chi Nian stood in front of the sink to wash vegetables, the sleeves of his jacket kept slipping, Chi Nian had water on his hands, and he didn't want to trouble others, so he tried to pull his sleeves up with his mouth.
Xu Yi finished cutting the vegetables, looked around and wanted to find something to do, and happened to see that Chi Nian needed help, so he stepped forward to fix Chi Nian's sleeves.
"Thank you."
"I'll wash the vegetables with you."
"Okay."
Everything is ready to go.
"Life advice, eat hot pot with your best friend." He Chuan looked at the bubbling hot pot and sighed while wiping his glasses
Qiu Ning is a greedy person, she ignored He Chuan's speech, kept eating, and said while eating: "Chi Nian, this is delicious, I'll clip it to you." ”
"Chi Nian, this is not bad, I'll clip it to you."
"Chi Nian, give you meat, you're too thin, you need to eat more."
"Hey, He Chuan, you leave some for Chi Nian."
Qiu Ning ate while giving Chi Nian a clip, and for a while, Chi Nian's bowl was piled up into a hill by the vegetables that Qiu Ning sandwiched.
"Don't eat all the time, come and chat, eat hot pot without chatting, there is no soul," He Chuan proposed
Qiu Ning nodded: "Yes, let's chat."
"Come on, Xu Yi, let's talk about our new friends," Qiu Ning proposed
"Okay," Xu Yi agreed when he saw everyone's enthusiasm
Qiu Ning asked, "Why did you and He Chuan transfer from the provincial experiment to the first middle school?"
"My mother and my sister went abroad to find my father, and they were not at ease when I was alone over there, and my aunt happened to be in this city, so she turned around." Xu Yi replied
Qiu Ning nodded, looked at He Chuan again and asked, "Why did you come back?" Mr. Ho"
"Xu Yi is back, I don't want him to come back alone. I know the feeling of being alone in a strange city, Xu Yi gave me guidance when I was helpless and confused, I definitely won't leave him when he needs me, this is the friendship between men."
Qiu Ning asked again: "Are you living with your aunt now?" ”
Xu Yi shook his head: "I live by myself, everyone has their own space, she also has her life, I can't disturb and intervene in her life, but she will often come to visit me, and I will also take the time to see her." ”
He Chuan patted Xu Yi's shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, you came here, you are not alone, you have us, we are all your good brothers and friends, my home will always be open to you." ”
"I know I'll never be alone"
Chi Nian listened to their conversation, with tears in his eyes, Xu Yi noticed it, and asked worriedly, "Chi Nian, what's wrong with you?" ”
Chi Nian shook his head and didn't answer.
Xu Yi looked at Chi Nian worriedly.
He Chuan gave Xu Yi a look, and the two got up and went to the balcony, closing the balcony door casually, leaving the space for Chi Nian and Qiu Ning.
"Don't worry, Chi Nian is a person with strong empathy ability, although it looks cold on the surface, in fact, the heart is sensitive and soft"
Xu Yi nodded, He Chuan and Xu Yi leaned on the railing of the balcony, looking at the sky, it was pitch black, there was only one bright moon, shining arrogantly, trying to illuminate the whole world.
Lonely souls are all attracted to each other.
