The banquet finally ended, and Xiong Yanfei stood up to see him off. "How did you get here? Do you need my dad's car to drop you off? ”

"No, I don't. My dad's car was already waiting for me in front of the hotel. Ding Xiaofang said.

"I told my dad to come home at seven o'clock. His car should have arrived. Wu Shufang said.

"Wu Lihe and I came on bicycles, and we rode back." Qi Jianguo said, "Goodbye." ”

"Goodbye." Wu Lihe said.

"Zheng Qihang, goodbye. When you go home, you can come and see me and Qi Jianguo. Wu Shufang specially greeted me.

"I will. Good bye. I sat motionless, barely squeezing out a smile.

Among these four gentlemen, Wu Shufang has obviously been less edified, and her kindness and innocence have not been lost.

"Set sail, you sit here and wait for me, I'll be back to settle the bill. I'll send you all off. Xiong Yanfei said.

"There you go." I say.

Xiong Yanfei walked out of the box with her friends. The waiter came in to close the stock. I moved my chair back.

The stimulation of the wine on my brain continued, but I was very conscious. I knew it was time for me to quit the game. I don't fit in this kind of crowd.

Coming to a birthday party would have been a mistake. I don't know when, I lost the self-knowledge I shared with Shi Zhiqiang.

This is the consequence of losing self-knowledge, which can also be said to be punishment.

The waiter removed all the plates. I walked to the window and pulled back the curtains to look out. Night had already fallen. The lights flickered in the buildings.

It was the first time I felt the difference between people so deeply.

"Hey!" Xiong Yanfei, who had quietly walked behind me, slapped me on the shoulder.

"Scared me." I say.

"What are you looking at?" Xiong Yanfei stood with me and looked out the window. Her unique fragrance blended into my nostrils in the turbid air.

"Didn't look at anything? Are all your classmates gone? ”

"It's all gone. Four people, two bikes, so romantic. ”

"Didn't those two female classmates say that their parents came to pick them up?" I asked.

"Do you believe that?"

"Ahh I say.

"I've wronged you today." Xiong Yanfei looked at me.

I throbbed again and felt very weak, "Please don't call me to this kind of banquet in the future." ”

"Think they're cheesy?"

"I feel depressed."

"They are all of this virtue, after all, they are all children of official eunuchs, and they inevitably like to show off and love vanity, but they are all excellent, both in terms of academic performance and comprehensive quality." Xiong Yanfei said.

"I'm ashamed of myself."

"Do you care about who they are?" Xiong Yanfei stared at me.

"I ......"

"Are you ashamed that you don't have such an identity as them?" Xiong Yanfei asked.

"Me? Do you think I'm such a person? "I raised my tone. I felt insulted.

"I don't think you're such a person, I don't think you will feel inferior in front of them, that's why I introduced you to them." Xiong Yanfei still stared at me.

"But I don't know how to do it, I just feel uncomfortable." I lowered my tone. I suddenly felt ashamed again.

"Maybe they're too domineering, and you can't accept your usual low-key for a while. It's that you don't have deep contact with them, and if you do, you will like them, just like you like me. ”

"I ......" I immediately stabbed in my back, and became nervous.

"What? Don't you like me? Xiong Yanfei looked at me defiantly.

"It's time for me to go back." I'll talk about him left and right.

"My dad will be there in twenty minutes."

"I'll take the bus back."

"No, I can't. Let my dad send you. Do you want to wrestle again? Xiong Yanfei hurriedly walked in front of me, as if I would take the road away.

"If I don't catch the car when I go back, why will I wrestle again?" I say.

"No, it just doesn't. I can see you're walking with a bit of a limp. Besides, didn't you drink too much? Xiong Yanfei asked.

"Mention this again." I say.

"But these are good memories for me. I was thinking, a few years later, when I think of these things, I think of Zheng Qihang, because he was rushing to my birthday party, he wrestled and drank dozens of yuan of wine in one go, and drank three glasses in a row, and drank himself dizzy, how happy it was. Xiong Yanfei said with flashing eyes.

"It is too immoral to base happiness on the pain of others." I deliberately pulled my face down.

"That can't be helped." Xiong Yanfei tilted his head to look at me. Her face flushed.

My heart was pounding.

It seems too good to feel. Good almost unreal.

The waiter had already packed up the table and left. There were only two people left in the whole box, Xiong Yanfei and me. Two people in the prime of their cardamom years. So close. Close enough to hear the other person's breathing.

A waiter flashed past the door of the box. I realized that I had to end this face-to-face conversation.

"Let's go downstairs. Have you checked out? I said.

"I signed it. My dad will come to the end later. We went to the hotel door for a walk. You bring me these bags. Hey, wait, I'll put on the silk scarf you gave me and try it on. Xiong Yanfei also seemed to come back to her senses.

"Now?" I was amazed.

"Of course. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. ”

Xiong Yanfei walked into the bathroom.

After a while, she walked out, "How's it going?" Is it good-looking? ”

The purple silk scarf is wrapped around the neck and attached to the collar, not as ostentatious as the woolen scarf in winter.

"You're talking." Seeing that I didn't reply, Xiong Yanfei continued to ask.

"It looks like a different feeling." I say.

"I don't care how you feel, I like it very much."

"Thank you, Xiong Yanfei." I was really touched.

"Why do you say that?"

"I was worried that you were performing." I speak from my heart.

"What do you mean? I didn't. Always replace someone else's idea with your own. I really like it. ”

"Because it's too cheap compared to what they're giving away."

"It depends on who delivers it. Some people don't necessarily bring me joy even if they give me a piece of jewelry. Xiong Yanfei said sincerely.

We went down to the hotel lobby and pushed open the turnstile and came out onto the street in front of the hotel. We walked along the sidewalk.

Perhaps because this is the main road of Hua'an City, the government street is full of traffic and people. Car lights, street lamps, and the light from various large hotels illuminate the place brighter than daytime. Customers come and go in the storefront on the side of the hotel.

"Zheng Qihang, being able to walk with you on this street feels like a dream." Xiong Yanfei continued to express her feelings.

"That's what I should say." I say.

"No, you didn't care about me all this time. After all, we are not in the same class and have very little contact. Look, when did you come to my class and look for me? Almost all of them are in your class. ”

"Didn't I look for you recently?"

"Isn't that I'm waiting for you yet?"

"I thought about going to the window of your class to remind you, but Wu Lianzi wanted to ask me a question, so I had to help her solve it. I'm worried that you've left the classroom. "I said it from my heart.

"So, we still have a bit of a 'smart heart' feeling." Xiong Yanfei said.

"I have such a strong foundation in Chinese studies, and even Li Shangyin's poems have been moved."

"In front of you, this is a showmanship."

"No, Xiong Yanfei, I really don't read many books. I've already told you that I only came into contact with this excellent literature last summer. ”

We had a great chat. My unpleasant mood has long since dissipated.

Xiong Yanfei always wears the scarf I sent, which makes my heart warm.

When we walked through the alley of an alley, we suddenly heard a person's voice: "Xiong Yanfei, Xiong Yanfei!" ”

The voice came from the alley.

We looked in the alley, and with the help of the street lights, we saw Yu Jinrong waving towards us.

"It's Yu Jinrong." I say.

"Ignore him, let's go." Xiong Yanfei said.

Let's move on.

"Xiong Yanfei, you can't be so ruthless!" Yu Jinrong caught up with us and stopped in front of us.

"What are you going to do?" Xiong Yanfei said.

"Today is your birthday, and I wish you a happy birthday." Yu Jinrong shook his body and stretched out his hand to grab Xiong Yanfei's hand.

"Thank you." Xiong Yanfei took a step back.

"Why don't you tell me where your banquet is? Why didn't you invite me this year? Have you forgotten how happy we were today last year? ”

"Don't tell me about last year. Didn't I already tell you? Xiong Yanfei said with a cold face.

"Nope! I'm just going to mention it. I want to mention. That was my fondest memory, why didn't I mention it? It's not because of this kid, if it weren't for this kid, wouldn't we still be very close? Yu Jinrong pointed at me and said.

"Yu Jinrong, you are mistaken. As long as your character is discovered by me, it will be a matter of time before we break off the relationship, and it has nothing to do with Zheng Qihang. ”

"Don't fool me. I know, you're all because of this kid. I'm telling you, I'm thinking about killing this kid now. Damn, he completely replaced me. Zheng Qihang, why are you doing this?! Yu Jinrong turned to me. He's like a defeated rooster now.

"I didn't do that. I just came here at the invitation of Xiong Yanfei. "I tried to calm myself.

"Damn, I really regret not abolishing you. Fuck, it's so well disguised. Dead or alive didn't tell me where the banquet was. ”

"Are you troublesome with Zheng Qihang again?" Xiong Yanfei asked.

"What? I'm going to keep getting him in trouble. As long as he can stand the beating, as long as he doesn't leave you. Yu Jinrong gritted his teeth.

"You. Zheng Qihang, didn't you say you fell? Xiong Yanfei turned to me.

"I'm afraid you're worried." I say.

"I said how can you fall like this. Yu Jinrong, you are too despicable. ”

"Am I despicable? Who is despicable? Who caused me so much pain? Yu Jinrong seems to have forgotten that this is the street.

Some passers-by kept looking back at us.

"Emotional things can't be forced. What you have to do is to reflect well, but I didn't expect you to listen to my advice at all. Xiong Yanfei said.

"You forced it."

"I want you to be self-conscious."

"I'm so self-conscious, will you accept me again?" Yu Jinrong looked at Xiong Yanfei.

"Let me tell you Yu Jinrong, if you are rude to Zheng Qihang again, I will ask my father to tell your father."

"Don't mention my father, do you think I'll be scared if I bring my father? Xiong Yanfei, please give me another chance to perform, okay? How can the friendship between us be broken? Yu Jinrong said.

"You know the reason for yourself. Let's go, Zheng Qihang, let's go back to the hotel. My dad has arrived. Xiong Yanfei said.

Let's go back.

"Xiong Yanfei, you'll regret it!" Yu Jinrong shouted behind us.

We walked back in silence.

Xiong Yanfei's father's car was already parked in front of the hotel. He saw us and honked his horn. Xiong Yanfei waved at the car.
