Chapter 11: Don't Let Pain Overwhelm You
In the evening of this day, Liang Nian had just washed his hair and came out of the water room, walked into the somewhat dim dormitory with his hands on his hair, did not turn on the light, bent over, groped to pick up the purple towel hanging on the cabinet, and wiped his shoulder-length hair. After wiping her for a while, she felt that her waist was a little sore, so she sat on the bed under Li Weiwei, and then skillfully rolled up the towel and coiled it on her head. There was no one in the dormitory, Li Weiwei and they went to the small shop opened by the dormitory manager to buy snacks, Liang Nian picked up a towel from the side of the bed and wiped his wet neck, and suddenly a familiar ringtone came from the pillow, Liang Nian tilted his head, it was Li Weiwei's white mobile phone, the screen was buckled on the bed, and the back of the mobile phone case was exaggerated against her big head and a smiling face with teeth and claws, looking at the photo Liang Nian couldn't help laughing.
The mobile phone rang for a while, and Liang Nian shouted into the corridor, "Weiwei, phone!" "In the hallway was the sound of the girls chatting and saying hello, and there was no reply. Liang Nian picked up the phone and wanted to send it to Li Weiwei, the ringtone suddenly paused, and the sound of a message came out, Liang Nian flipped over the phone and glanced at it, and suddenly stopped in place, she turned the phone screen slowly in disbelief, and a message flashed on the screen.
Liang Nian's eyes darkened, and the fingers holding the mobile phone began to grasp slowly, the bone joints were slightly pale because of the exertion, and the screen with white light showed that the unread message was from Li You, from, Li You.
When Li Weiwei and Jin Ning returned to the dormitory, it was dark without turning on the lights, "Why is Liang Nian so provincial?" Cui Jia quipped and turned on the light, but the room was empty. I guess I went to the bathroom," Li Weiwei sat on the bed with a smile, picked up the mobile phone from the pillow, saw the two missed messages from Li You, and a tight smile disappeared from her face, she was silent for a while, as if she had just come to her senses, and dialed Liang Nian's phone, but no one answered.
There was still half an hour left for the evening self-study to start, and I still didn't see Liang Nian's phone connected, Li Weiwei sat in the classroom as unusually quiet, but his heart was uneasy. Ten minutes before class, I received a message from Liang Nian, "I'm a little uncomfortable, and I don't want to study at night." Seeing Liang Nian's message, Li Weiwei exhaled a breath and thought, maybe he was thinking too much.
There was no light in the dormitory, and it was dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and my aunt shouted in the corridor, "Is there anyone else, are they all out, and if they come out, I'll lock the door!" Liang Nian sat in the darkness of the top bunk and did not reply, burying his head deep in his knees, his limbs still cold.
Suddenly, the mobile phone rang ringing, Liang Nian slowed down for a while and turned on the screen, it was Zhizi, "Liang Nian, where are you, our class door hasn't opened yet, and I'll be waiting for you in class for a while." Liang Nian suddenly remembered that the key to the class door was still here, and she rummaged through her pockets, no! She got out of bed again and rummaged through the schoolbag in the cabinet and still didn't have it, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have put the key in the desk, and she asked, "Is the head teacher here tonight?" "Don't come, it's Friday, it's not the head teacher on duty, you forgot?"
Liang Nian began to panic in her heart, she hurriedly ran downstairs to find that her aunt had locked the door, she paced back and forth in the dark, scolding herself for being so stupid, while thinking about what to do, why did she always put herself in such a helpless and embarrassed situation? Liang Nian thought hatefully, and his psychology became more and more irritable. Suddenly, she thought of someone, she hurriedly opened her phone to find the address book master's column, and dialed the phone.
Wang Jinlong listened to Liang Nian's voice on the other side of the phone, she had never been so flustered, as if she was about to cry, after listening to the reason for the matter, Wang Jinlong comforted Liang Nian on the other side of the phone and said It's okay, leave it to me, deal with it and call you, and hung up the phone after speaking. After a while, Liang Nian received a call back, and the boy's calm and powerful voice came, "Don't worry, everyone has already entered the classroom." In the dark, Liang Nian stood barefoot on the cold ground, his eyes closed, his chest surging with heat rushing close to his nose, and he only felt like crying.
Liang Nian sat on the windowsill of the dormitory on the fourth floor, leaned his head on his curled knees, looked out at the darkened playground and the flickering lights of the residential buildings in the distance, his brain was blank, he didn't think about anything in a daze, he just felt that his body and brain were a little tired. She thought about how many bottles she had left when she drank with Wei Wei last time, she took out the three cans of beer hidden from the deepest part of the cabinet, sat back in place, looked at the can in her hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly, even this wine was bought with Wei Wei, I don't know when, Wei Wei became an indispensable part of his life, so important, so important that Liang Nian almost forgot about Li You's existence.
Liang Nian stepped on the cool marble paved on the windowsill with her bare feet, opened the can, and there was a sound of "bang" in the dark, she frowned and swallowed a mouthful of foam, grinning, it was really unpleasant. Suddenly, the mobile phone rang, Liang Nian connected the phone and turned on the speakerphone, "What floor are you on?" A familiar male voice came from the other side.
"Fourth floor, what's wrong?" "Open the window!" She was stunned, but she still squatted up and unscrewed the window, and leaned out, downstairs Wang Jinlong wrapped in a black down jacket in the lights of the teaching building grinning and waving upstairs with a smile, Liang Nian looked at the boys downstairs wrapped in a down jacket in the cold, only to feel that his fluttering heart seemed to sink down and fell into flesh and blood, extremely stable.
When Li Weiwei and the others returned to the dormitory after school, Liang Nian had already gone to bed, covered with a quilt, and seemed to be asleep, and several people washed lightly and turned off the lights and went to bed. Liang Nian opened his eyes in the dark, lying on his side thinking about the night, Wang Jinlong sat on the stone bench playing chess downstairs in the dormitory with the phone, wrapped the collar of his coat, looked up at Liang Nian, and asked, "What's wrong with you, it doesn't seem right today." ”
"No, it's just a little uncomfortable, what are you doing here, the teacher will check the number of people in a while."
"It's okay, I only came out after checking the number, it's not interesting for you to stay with me, so I'll come over to accompany you by the way."
"What are you drinking?"
“...... Beer"
"Throw it down!"
The black book wrapped in a few bottles of beer fell at Wang Jinlong's feet, Wang Jinlong sat on the stone bench, opened a bottle of beer, and talked to Liang Nian on the phone, chatting about the present, chatting about the past, chatting about each other's families, and chatting about school. When talking about Weiwei, Wang Jinlong was silent for a while and said to Liang Nian on the other side of the phone, "Do you know, Weiwei is not easy, as long as you are in her, you will always be your shadow." ”
Liang Nian frowned, "I don't understand", "You'll know later." He raised his glass to the vague shadow of Liang Nian upstairs, and Liang Nian's hand also raised against the window, swallowing a large gulp of bitter wine. Liang Nian, if you are sad in the future, just say it, even if it is to tell me or others, the pain that people can bear is limited, and if the pain is too much, it will drown yourself. Liang Nian looked at Wang Jinlong's shadow in the light downstairs, and his eyes were a little sour.
Time goes very fast, just like the frequent snow days in winter, fluttering day after day but different every day, Liang Nian is still busy doing questions every day, Li Weiwei no longer shouts to play ball every day, every day in the warm heating like a hibernating cold-blooded animal, every day in addition to dozing off is to ask Liang Nian to go to eat after school. Wang Jinlong also talked about the game with Zhang Yuanping, Phantom Qiang, Wang and An as usual, and would pass by Liang Nian's desk during recess, roll away the water cup, and put it in the corner of Liang Nian's desk without caring after filling it with hot water, naturally as if he had done it thousands of times. Liang Nian and Li Weiwei would also buy breakfast after going for a morning run in the morning, and put it in Wang Jinlong's table in advance between classes, and every time Wang Jinlong would touch the hot buns in the table and smile at Liang Nian and nod and make a grimace. The days were dull and fulfilling.
