The time to deliver the dates was finally chosen at about half past three in the morning on a Wednesday.

Zhong Pei leaked a message to me after pit me for a hot pot that they would have to stay up late to watch the football game again. I said that Zhong Pei pit my hot pot, it was really a pit, he asked me to get to the hot pot restaurant on time, and after he arrived with a beautiful girl, he made me pay and blew me away. That beautiful girl was the girl who told me on the side of the pitch that Yi Xu scored an own goal, and she was waiting for Zhong Pei that day.

Zhong Pei specially reminded me to arrive at half past three, because Yi Xu never arrived early. He went home and went to bed first every time, and when the time came. Neither of us understood how good it would be to borrow a bed in the boys' dormitory for two hours back and forth. The whole world knows that there are always empty beds in Chinese boys' dormitories, and there are always people who are out in love or playing games day and night.

At that time, Yixu's mobile phone number had been sleeping in my phone for more than two weeks, and we both had our own numbers, but we never texted or called.

I opened the dormitory door at 3:15 a.m. and climbed through the big iron door of the dormitory building. Zhang Hengli was waiting for me outside against the wall, the door was so high, it was so dark, and he didn't stretch out his hand to let me take it.

"You didn't tell Zhang Yi, did you?" I asked him. If Zhang Yi knew that I hadn't given up chasing men yet, and I didn't sleep in the middle of the night to chase after him, I would have to be angry.

"No, don't worry!"

"And why are you here? Not sure? I asked him.

"No, although there are all men over there, and there are hungry people who don't choose to eat, but this chance is not worth getting up at three o'clock in the middle of the night, and I have to stay up all night if I don't get it."

"Why is that?"

"You look more ferocious at night than during the day, a bit of a bad guy, I'm afraid you'll scare people, do you know how many brothers I play games with? You've crippled them, and I'm going to have to spend time finding new partners and opponents again! ”

I kicked him. He also came back with a kick. I kicked it, he kicked it, and we got to the Internet café with one foot and one foot.

"The leaves of the leaves, cherish the cherish, the beauty of the good!"

As soon as we entered, Zhong Pei's voice came. The crowd around him laughed too. I ran over to them and said, "Please, keep it low! ”

"This place is a place for men to play games and watch football games, and it's too high-profile for you to be alone!" Zhong Pei said.

"I didn't show up alone, I followed ......" I turned around, Zhang Hengli's bastard was not behind me at all, and after looking around, he was already sitting in a position and playing the game. He is a VIP of the Internet café, and he doesn't need to go to the front desk to check his ID card and pay a deposit.

I ran over and ripped off his headphones: "Did you just get up and go to the bathroom?" ”

Several people who happened to be without headphones looked at us and smiled secretly.

Zhang Hengli snatched the headphones back: "It's on, it seems." ”

"You haven't officially started here yet, go to the toilet first, or you will hold it for another two or three hours!"

I snatched his headphones back again, placed them on the table, and pulled him up from his chair.

He had to go to the toilet obediently.

This scene was seen by Zhong Pei and them, and he moved his fingers to let me pass.

"Adultery?" He asked me with an eyebrow.

"My sister, if you are single, you can find him, he is not a picky eater." I say.

He smiled evilly: "If you are not a picky eater, you should be picked!" ”

My eyes fell on the door: "Is it easy to continue to be a picky eater?" ”

Zhong Pei chuckled: "This thought of yours, in front of so many outsiders, why can't you hide it?" ”

"Then don't hide!" The fat man next to him said. It's the one who played the teacher that day.

"Hey, I'm so envious, it would be great if a woman chased me like this, of course, I have to be a little prettier than you." Another said.

"Much prettier than her! But if you are beautiful, you don't need to chase people, beautiful women are chased by others! Zhong Pei said.

"That's right." I said, looking at the door.

"Yes to what! Those who are more beautiful than you are not necessarily beauties, there is a long gap between you and beauties. The fat man said.

"That's right." I was still staring at the door, a little absent-minded.

Several people laughed.

"When is Yi Xu coming?" I'm almost staring through the door.

"Are you looking for me?" Yi Xu walked past me and looked at me suspiciously.

"Mom!" I was frightened: "Where did you come from?" ”

"From your heart!" Zhong Pei joked.

Yi Xu ignored him and said to me, "From the front door." ”

"Isn't this the front door?" I pointed to the door and asked, I only know this one entrance!

"This is the side door." He said, "Are you looking for me?" ”

"This is for you!" I handed him an MP3.

He held the MP3, which was obviously an old thing, and asked suspiciously, "This?" Give it to me? ”

"No, no, it's not this PM3, you have to pay me back, I borrowed it from a friend, I wanted to give you this song inside," I said, pointing to AC Milan on the TV screen, "I'll cheer them on for you!" ”

He frowned incredulously, smiled at me, nodded and sighed softly, "Oh." "He put on his headphones and I was sure to play. His gaze shifted from my face to the ground to the MP3

up, then to my face, then to the ceiling, and finally to the next classmate with a smile.

It was the Milan team song, damn Italian, I didn't know a word, I couldn't know a word, I had no choice but to adopt the method of Chinese phonetic transcription, which I wanted to use very happily when I first learned English, and it came in handy again. I secretly studied for a whole week.

Zhong Pei and the others rushed over to listen, and in less than a minute, everyone laughed, and even the people in the game area looked at this side frequently. Except for Zhang Hengli's bastard, the person who can forget to even go to the toilet when he plays games, has been completely immersed in his own game world, and he doesn't know that I am deep in the quagmire.

I kept a composed, and I knew I messed up again. Yi Xu did laugh, but that laugh and the performance of calmly looking at the TV screen afterwards were not reactions to eating dates.

On the TV screen, two teams stand in a row, the camera zooms from the long view to the close-up, one by one over the faces of the players, and they are collectively singing the song, which is the Milan team anthem. When I compared the TV on TV with my MP3, the laughter of the group became more and more terrifying, and I was very discouraged.

I hung my head, and for a moment I felt tired, like a black net, that suddenly came down from the top of my head, slid over my neck, my limbs, and even the soles of my feet. I moved my pace and walked towards Zhang Hengli. I removed his headphones slightly away from his ears.

"I'm back in the dormitory, are you with me?" I asked him.

He was still busy with his hands on the keyboard: "Impossible. He said.

I helped him put on his headphones, walked to the counter in the middle area, and bought a loaf of bread, a cake and a box of biscuits, as well as two bottles of mineral water.

"Eat something when you're hungry, drink some water, and most importantly, remember to go to the toilet!" I pulled off his headphones and told him.

“Ok！” He still didn't look at me.

When I reached the door, I suddenly heard him shouting from behind: "Xijia! Don't tell Zhang Yi that I'm here! ”

"Got it!"

He may have been an all-nighter again. If you let Zhang Yi know, the end will be more serious than knowing that I don't sleep in the middle of the night to chase men.

At the last moment I walked out of that Internet café, I still saw that Yi Xu and their group had quieted down and watched the game seriously. I walked out into the night alone.

It was a very cold night, and I walked outside for less than ten seconds before my hands and feet were cold. It was windy, and it was raining slightly, so I put the hat on my head. My hat was huge, the top edge was a little above my forehead, and the wind and rain were going in the direction I was going back to my dorm, so it was reasonable that my face would not get wet. But it's still wet.

Because I cried.

I cried quite intently, and I don't know when Zhang Hengli followed me. He pulled at my clothes, we stopped in the middle of the road, I cried, he was silent. He doesn't comfort people, he has a lot of experience in broken love, but only a rare experience of crying. I always thought this was called Huaxin, and then Yi continued to say no, he didn't step on a few boats, he said that Zhang Hengli is a child, and it is simpler than ordinary children, falling in love is like a child and a playmate, it doesn't matter if you don't play with me, I'll wait for others to play with me! He doesn't need to be comforted, and he naturally doesn't know how to comfort people.

It may have been too cold after a while, it was less than four o'clock in the morning, he took out the phone, wanted to call Zhang Yi and asked her to comfort me, but after hesitating for a while, he decided to give up. I know that if Zhang Yi knew, we would both have to be scolded. One doesn't sleep chasing men, and the other doesn't sleep playing games.

"Are you out of love?" He actually asked me that.

I ignored him. The light rain drenched our hair.

"I've been concentrating on playing the game just now, and I don't know what's going on over there, so why don't you tell me now!" He said as he opened the box of cookies I had bought for him.

I sobbed, no matter how calm the wall was, it had collapsed in one second.

"I gave him PM3 and it didn't work at all. Also laughed at by a group of people! I feel very annoyed, I shouldn't rush to watch him play, and I am also very discouraged, the kung fu I did seems to have become a clown show, Yi Xu didn't show forgiveness at all, let alone the joy of harvesting dates! I don't think he paid attention to what I did, he didn't care at all! I was so sad that I was dying, and he was just there watching the game as if nothing had happened! Is that the game that good? What to do, I don't think I can catch up with him! ”

Zhang Hengli said with shining eyes: "How can you not catch up?" It's easy for men to chase! ”

"You think he's you?"

He threw a biscuit into his mouth: "How bad it is to reject a girl!" ”

"He's just not good to me!" I said angrily.

He was about to stuff a biscuit into my mouth, and I frustrated my head to the side, and he threw it into his own mouth. He took out another bottle of spring water from his pocket, opened it and poured it twice, and said, "Then be friends!" He can't refuse to be friends, right? There's no boy like that, I've never seen it, you trust me! ”

I pinched my heart and said, "I don't lack friends, I have friends like you and Zhang Yi, what do I need one more friend for?" ”

As if playing a trick, he took out the bread from his pocket and took a bite of it, and he didn't leave anything I bought for him.

"He doesn't want to be a lover, you don't want to be a friend, you can only be a stranger!" He said.

I whispered bitterly, "But I like him!" Why do you think he doesn't like me? ”

"You can't force this! There are some things in the world, like a toon with broken roots, that are difficult to germinate! My dad said that day that people nowadays stop pursuing dreams, happiness and love. It's about how big a house you want to buy and what kind of car you want to buy, do you know why? ”

"Why?"

"Because dreams, happiness and love are too abstract, abstract things are boring to pursue."

"Are you off topic?"

"He doesn't like you because you're too ...... Abstract. ”

I punched him twice: "My eyes, nose, mouth, where do they have no shape?" ”

He rubbed his shoulder, which was hurt by me: "It's okay, you have a beautiful soul!" ”

"Really? Do I have one? I don't even know what spiritual beauty is. You say that my soul is beautiful, what is the beauty of my soul? ”

"Hmm...... That's it, I think about it, my dad told me! ”

"Think about it!"

"Oh," he seemed to be suddenly inspired: "Zhang Yi said that day, saying that he didn't know what you liked Yi Xu, if it was just that he helped others and bought you an ice cream, or if he looked okay, would you not really like it, just impulsive?" ”

I wondered, "So how do I know the answer?" ”

"Give yourself time, impulsiveness has a time limit, so be it, anyway, the exam is coming soon, so you can concentrate on studying. During the winter vacation, you can just let yourself calm and calm, and you won't contact for two months to see what happens. ”

I clutched my frozen cheeks and whispered, "What if he contacts me for the next two months?" ”

"Then you're not going to get what you want!" He had finished the bread, crumpled the bag into a ball, and threw it in the trash can not far away.

"What if we lose contact from now on?"

"Zhang Yi said, your liking for him is just impulsive, he doesn't like you, he doesn't deserve it." As he spoke, he began to smoke the cookie box again.

My grievances and worries overflowed to the point that I couldn't restrain myself at all, he was piercing my heart with a compass, and I angrily slapped the biscuit box to the ground: "Zhang Yi said that he is not worth it?" ”

He didn't panic, he pulled the inside box of biscuits out of the bag on the spot, held the opening of the plastic bag with two fingers, and threw it into the trash.

"That's what Zhang Yi said." He said.

Feeling a little guilty, I pulled the mineral water out of his pocket and opened the lid for him to drink.

"Who is worth it in her eyes?" I asked.

He chewed another biscuit and said, "I don't know." Maybe not born yet! ”

I burst into tears and laughed and wiped my face.

"Your girlfriend hasn't dumped you yet?" I yelled at him, "The good days are coming to an end, and we're going to be stretched thin again!" The end of the month is coming! Can you get her to get rid of you quickly, bastard! ”

"I remember, the soul is beautiful, the first one, no bad words!"

I didn't care what he said, and continued: "Zhang Yi warned us a few days ago that if we spend money without planning and moderation, we will be killed by money one day!" Or do you go buy a lottery ticket? Is there a sports lottery, is there a game lottery? It's okay to get 35,000 yuan! “

"Second, don't be greedy for money."

I glared at him: "Forget it, eating steamed buns is a small matter, and not being able to catch up with Yi Xu is a big deal." ”

"The third one, don't think about evil thoughts."

I glared at him, not wanting to say a word, and the deep disappointment was on me, like darkness, which could not be dispersed.

"Hurry back to the dormitory!" Zhang Hengli suddenly urged me.

"You care about me!"

"No, I want to pee."

His pee is a big deal: "Then you hurry up and go first!" I said.

He shook his head and pulled me quickly towards the girls' dormitory. When I arrived at the big iron gate, I wiped my eyes casually, grabbed my hands, kicked my feet, and went up. I turned over the top, turned and jumped down, something happened, I was hanging in the air, the hat on my coat hung on the iron door, and I couldn't move.

"Zhang Hengli!" I whispered for help.

"What if I want to laugh now?" He said.

I saw him holding a box of biscuits, shaking, laughing and peeing.

"Save me first!" I said helplessly.

"Okay, I'll ...... Oops, no! Xijia, can you wait for me, I'm about to pee! With that, he ran away.

I burst into tears, and I didn't dare to cry. I can imagine that if someone suddenly saw me and was scared to death, I would be hanged. I felt like I was overwhelmed with grief.

Zhang Hengli came back soon and put all the food on the grass aside, I was not in a hurry to be happy, he asked me, "How do you go up?" ”

"Are you a man?" My grievances add another layer.

"It's not a matter of men and women, it's a restless thing!"

"I don't want to talk to you anymore! Love to climb or not! I relaxed and continued to cry.

"Climb! I climb! ”

He climbed on top and tried to take off my hat, but it was so heavy on my body that he couldn't pull it.

"I can't pull it!" He said anxiously.

"Then you climb down, help me unzip it, and I'll get out."

He had to climb down, halfway up and reach out to help me unzip it down.

"Don't jump yet, let me go down first, I'll pick you up below, it's too high, you'll fall and get hurt!" Zhang Hengli said thoughtfully.

My mind has been very numb by the impact of sadness, I will listen to what he says, in fact, that height is really small to me in normal times. He opened his arms and gestured to pick me up, and while preparing, he also recited a word: "Xijia, don't cry, your tears are floating on my face, oops, it's so salty!" ”

I was caught safely by him.

I continued to walk sadly and numbly to the dormitory, my phone and keys were in my pants pocket, and I didn't have the heart to care about the coat and Zhang Hengli hanging on the door. I opened the door to my dorm room and fell asleep.

When we left school and went home together on Friday, Zhang Hengli told me that as soon as he took off my coat that night, he heard a movement in the guard room of our dormitory, and as soon as he was nervous, he ran to the girls' dormitory. He hid in the corner of our dormitory building until dawn when the iron door was opened, and he wore my clothes, twisted his ass through the iron door, and then ran away. I don't know if I was scared or frozen, I had a bad cold for two days and didn't go out of the dormitory.

On the same day, Zhong Pei returned the MP3 to me. He didn't mention Yi Xu at all. Yi Xu really didn't contact me.

I didn't take the initiative to look for the days of Yi Xin, and he disappeared like that. Our fate is really shallow, in the small campus, I always bump into Zhong Pei and those people, even if Zhang Hengli and I don't make an appointment at all, we can meet at least 5 meals a week.

But I just haven't encountered easy continuation.

I was always in a daze for no apparent reason. Halfway through eating, I suddenly stopped, and I didn't know that I had a potato in my mouth for ten minutes. Even if I ate with Zhang Hengli and Zhang Yi, I didn't say a word, ate with my head bored, didn't raise my head, and avoided them. I stopped abruptly halfway through walking, and once I stopped on a zebra crossing.

At that time, Zhang Hengli didn't bother to explain me, in his opinion, I was a little worried about the new words, after all, Yi Xu and I hadn't started yet, and he Zhang Hengli had fallen out of love many times and survived with a spring breeze on his face. The most he did was make fun of me:

"Xijia, look," he pointed to his neck and the top of his head, spread his palms again, and said to me, "Snow neck, black hair, red net palms, please see where is not as good as you?" “

"Say what?"

"You actually love me deeply, how much I look like Yi Xu!"

"Where's the like?" I retorted, "Bloater than him, whiter than him, shorter than him." “

"That's how it is when you get a little poisoned!"

Soon, Zhang Hengli was successfully dumped by his girlfriend, and he took the trouble to ask me: "Xijia, do you understand my mood now?" ”

"I understand." I said listlessly, "There is a big gully in my heart that I can see." ”

"You don't understand! You just like someone, not in love, and liking someone is not the same as falling in love! ”

"I mean, we're both in the same bad mood right now."

"What?"

I looked at him and said faintly, "There are thousands of thoughts in my heart, but I can't see one under my feet." ”
