38 Chapter 38
The roaring car drove past the road, Chu Shanye looked at Gu Qingyan quietly, and said softly, "Really?"
Gu Qingyan avoided his gaze, feeling a little regretful for what he had just said.
He is not a person who likes to express his true feelings, but Chu Shanye looked too sad a few minutes ago, he didn't know how to comfort the other party, so he could only give him a promise a little recklessly.
Gu Qingyan never dared to make any "certain" promises, in his opinion, everything will change, and "certainly" and "forever" are the most unreliable things. But at that moment, a thought suddenly popped into him.
Maybe Chu Shanye can afford this "forever"? Chu Shanye shook his hand in front of him: "Brother." Gu Qingyan came back to his senses: "Huh? What's wrong?"
"Look what's up ahead."
Gu Qingyan raised his head and saw the familiar school gate and familiar name. They actually made it to his high school.
"At that time, I also wanted to take the high school exam," Chu Shanye put his hands behind his head and followed behind Gu Qingyan step by step, "I wanted to take the exam with you, but in the end, the score was still a little worse, and I went to the next door." "
After he finished speaking, he was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his tone was full of pride: "You have studied well since junior high school, and you were escorted without the high school entrance examination, and at that time, there was a banner with your name written on it outside the door of the junior high school, and it was hung for several months, and everyone knew that you were escorted to the best high school in the city." "
At that time, Gu Qingyan was also asked by the principal to give a speech in front of the whole school, and Chu Shanye, who was always willing to skip this kind of school-wide activity, rarely attended that speech, and stood below and listened to everything Gu Qingyan said without saying a word.
At that time, he was thinking, how could someone be so dazzling, standing on the podium like a small sun that would shine.
But at that time, Chu Shanye didn't know that he liked Gu Qingyan, but he simply wanted to attract the attention of this neighbor's brother, so that he would no longer put all his patience on his waste brother, so he went to people to brush his sense of existence at every turn.
Gu Qingyan has a good temper, he won't really be angry with him, and he will only sigh when he is a little annoyed by being entangled, and his voice is full of no relatives: "Chu Shanye, when will you grow up?"
At that time, Chu Shanye didn't want to grow up, because growing up meant that he could no longer rely on Gu Qingyan so openly. But later he found that if he didn't grow up, he wouldn't be able to be the person who was comparable to Gu Qingyan in his life.
"At that time, I often came here to wait for you to get out of school," Chu Shanye said as he stood at the school gate, "I remember it clearly, just this position, at that time
There is an old man who sells magazines here, and there are many pirated Japanese comics. I was reading these cartoons and waiting for you to get out of school. "
After he finished speaking, he paused, and laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "You probably forgot about it."
Chu Shanye remembered that he seemed to have seen the sunset and moonrise hundreds of times at this school gate, but the number of times he could wait for Gu Qingyan was only a handful. Maybe it was because he simply missed it, or maybe because Chu Hao knew that he was waiting at the door, so he deliberately took Gu Qingyan to the side door, and all kinds of factors were mixed together, making him always feel that he and Gu Qingyan had no fate.
If it hadn't been for that chance encounter in the hospital, he might not have dared to talk about these things until now.
Chu Shanye felt that the atmosphere was a little inexplicably heavy, coughed lightly, and was about to change the topic to a lighter one, but he heard Gu Qingyan say: "You were waiting for me outside the door on that rainy day, I remember." "
In March of the second semester of the second semester of high school, X City entered the rainy season, and the weather always became very fast, often in the morning when the sky was clear, and the weather suddenly changed at night. Gu Qingyan was always the last person to leave the classroom after the evening self-study, and when he turned off the power in the classroom and wiped the blackboard clean, two muffled thunders suddenly sounded outside the class, followed by a downpour from the sky.
He looked at the rain outside the window with some worry, regretting that he hadn't listened to the weather forecast more in the morning. Chu Hao said that he was going to play ball with someone, and he probably left a long time ago, and now he may have to wait for the rain to stop before he can go home.
But when he went to the first floor with his schoolbag on his back, he saw a person leaning against the glass door of the school and bowing his head to play a game, with a black umbrella standing next to him that looked very heavy.
Chu Shanye raised his eyes and looked at him: "It's so late?"
Gu Qingyan froze in place, thinking for a moment that he had seen something wrong. Why did Chu Shanye appear in his school?
Just a few seconds when he hesitated, the other party's mobile phone came with the broadcast of "Victory". Chu Shanye locked the screen of his mobile phone, and slowly walked towards him with one hand in his pocket.
"What are you doing in a daze?" He said, "The more you wait, the heavier it gets." Gu Qingyan came back to his senses and said softly, "Thank you." "Thank you, just drop by."
Chu Shanye opened the bulky black umbrella and covered Gu Qingyan's head: "I was going to look for my brother, but the others disappeared, and I originally wanted to wait for the rain to stop."
He deliberately emphasized the words "wait for my brother" and "originally", as if he was afraid that someone would discover his unspeakable thoughts.
Gu Qingyan didn't think about this at all, just said "um", and walked with him to the school gate.
"β¦β¦ At half past eight tonight, our city will usher in the biggest rainstorm of the year.
The precipitation in 24 hours is about 50 mm, please take necessary precautions and reduce outdoor activities, today night to tomorrow day, our city ......"
When passing through the communication room, the uncle's old radio was broadcasting tonight's weather conditions, and the female announcer voice was mixed with the sound of "zizilala".
"Heavy rain," Gu Qingyan frowned, "Can we go back before half past eight?"
Chu Shanye lowered his eyes and glanced at him: "I'm worried, I will definitely be able to go back."
There is a bus stop right outside the school, and perhaps the two of them were particularly lucky that night, and they only waited at the station for more than five minutes before the bus arrived.
There were very few people in the car, and there happened to be two more seats near the back door.
Chu Shanye asked Gu Qingyan to sit inside, and he leaned sideways beside him, letting the water on the umbrella fall drop by drop on the open space between the two rows of seats.
Gu Qingyan took out his mobile phone from his schoolbag, and originally plugged in the headphone cable to listen to the original English book for a while, but no matter how he adjusted the volume, there was no sound.
It should be broken.
It's really a water reversal.
Chu Shanye poked his head over and asked him, "What are you listening to?"
"Huh?"
Gu Qingyan took off the headphones and shook his head: "It's nothing." He put the earphones back in his school bag and was about to go home and change them, but the hand holding the other earphone suddenly reached in front of him.
"Listen to me?" Chu Shanye raised his eyebrows at him.
Gu Qingyan didn't think that Chu Shanye's headphones would have any original English books, but it would take about ten minutes to take the bus from school to their house, and they would be idle.
He took the earphone and stuffed it into his ear, and a clean guitar plucking sounded in his ears.
Chu Shanye touched his nose a little uncomfortably, and pretended to introduce him casually: "Jay's new song, which was just released this year, I think it's pretty good, have you heard it?"
Gu Qingyan shook his head.
He had rarely listened to this type of song before, but at first glance he actually liked it. "What's your name?" He asked Chu Shanye.
Chu Shanye closed his eyes slightly, leaned back on the back of the chair, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Guess."
Gu Qingyan raised his eyebrows and whispered: "If you don't guess, if you don't like to talk, you won't say it."
As he spoke, he leaned back into the back of the bus and looked out the window, watching the raindrops cut transparent diagonal lines on the windowpanes.
The two of them sank like this
When the bus slowly entered the station, when Gu Qingyan returned the earphones to Chu Shanye, the other party suddenly grabbed the earphone cable and didn't let him go.
"Don't make trouble," Gu Qingyan said, "It's going to be a stop if you make trouble again." "Do you understand the song?" Chu Shanye asked him such a sentence.
Gu frowned, as if he didn't understand why he asked.
What's more, it's just a song, what is there to understand and understand, everyone speaks in Chinese, is it difficult to have a language reading comprehension?
Chu Shanye sighed softly and let go of his hand: "It's okay, let's go, let's go home."
"I thought I would be able to get into the school."
Chu Shanye lingered at the school gate for a long time, and could only stare at the doorman at the door.
He tried to take Gu Qingyan to find himself before turning it over. The "secret base" that the wall entered, but when I found it, I found that the hole for people to climb into had been blocked.
Basically, all methods of entering the school have been cut off. Chu Shanye sighed with some regret: "Let's go."
"What do you have to do in school?" Gu Qingyan asked, "This is not your high school."
"Don't you know?"
Chu Shanye glanced at him quickly, a little embarrassed: "Your school's honor wall has put your photo. "Put a picture of him? The person who put the photo didn't even know about it.
"How do you know?" Gu Qingyan deliberately asked him, "Are you familiar with our school?"
It's not familiar.
It's just that I "passed by" a few times by chance, and I used various excuses to sneak into Gu Qingyan's school and stare at the wall of honor in a daze.
Of course, Chu Shanye would not tell him these words. "I'm a little tired, let's go back," he said, "don't you have class tomorrow?"
Gu Qingyan knew that he didn't want to say something, so he didn't expose some of his clumsy lies, and returned to the bus stop at the main entrance of the school with him.
It was here that they took the bus home on that rainy day many years ago. But now they are not going to home, but to school, or training ground.
Gu Qingyan looked at the road that stretched into the distance in the night, and an emotion called "melancholy" inexplicably surged in his heart, and before he could figure out why this melancholy came, a headset was suddenly plugged in his ear.
"Don't have headphones?" Chu Shanye stood beside him and raised his eyebrows at him, "Do you want to listen to me?"
At this moment, the person in front of him was like
It overlapped with the boy who braved the rain to pick him up, giving him the illusion of traveling through time. He made the same choice as he had that year, gently taking the headphones and stuffing them into his ears, and the familiar guitar plucking sound sounded again.
"I remember what age the love letters I wrote to you are, and I'm still writing them. Someday, one day you will find that someone is silently by your side. "
Gu Qingyan blinked slightly, as if he suddenly understood what the song was saying.
Five years ago, he was worried about the torrential rain outside and the unfinished homework in his school bag, but he ignored that someone was quietly confessing to him through the song in the headphones.
"Last year, Jay reset the song and put it on his new album," Chu said, "I can't say if it will get better, but it feels like something is different." β
"Is it different?"
Gu Qingyan's voice was very soft, drowned out by the sound of the bus rolling across the asphalt road.
Unlike the buses of five years ago, the cars are all new energy vehicles, no longer spraying black smoke on the faces of passers-by as soon as they start as in the past, the cars are full of gasoline smells, and even air conditioners are turned on.
But they were still left with two seats by the door.
Gu Qingyan sat inside and looked out the window, and could see a crescent moon in the distant night sky, and next to the crescent moon was an overly bright star, flashing and flashing to show his sense of existence.
Suddenly, he said, "What the hell is this song called?"
"Brother, isn't it?"
Chu Shanye's tone was joking, but a pair of deep black eyes showed a bit of indescribable unparenting and sadness: "After so many years, haven't you thought about searching for it?"
Gu Qingyan didn't speak, just looked at the place where the two earphone cables were connected to each other, and spoke after a period of silence: "It's called "Waiting for You to Get Out of Class", right?"
Actually, I went back that night
After Gu Qingyan never forgot the tune of this song, after learning it, he searched for the lyrics with a little remaining memory, only to find that this is a song that has dominated the charts in major music apps.
He downloaded the song to his mobile phone, which he wouldn't even click on to listen to, but it just so happened that the phone that downloaded the song was accidentally lost within a week. Gu Qingyan changed to a new mobile phone, and similarly forgot the song that had been saved.
Is this a mistake?
If Gu Qingyan understood the song at that time and knew Chu Shanye's careful thoughts, then Gu Qingyan might really keep his distance from this neighbor's younger brother immediately, and even cut off contact directly after graduation, and in the future, he would just be familiar and strange
People will never have these opportunities again, and when he is sad, no one will go to great lengths to make him happy.
The bus slowly stopped at the bus stop outside X University, and when Gu Qingyan got up, Chu Shanye also stood up, wanting to send him back to school.
"Don't send me off," Gu said lightly, "This is the last train."
Chu Shanye's movements stopped for a moment, and Gu Qingyan gently and skillfully rubbed past him, and jumped down the stairs at the back door of the bus in three or two steps.
He stood under the car and waved his hand to Chu Shanye, but saw Chu Shanye sigh on the window and draw one on the window with his fingers:
It's a crying face that looks particularly aggrieved.
Gu Qingyan was amused by him, and before he could make any other moves, the back door of the bus slowly closed and drove to the next stop. He turned and walked towards the school, and before he had taken a few steps, the phone in his pocket suddenly shook.
[Chu Shanye: Don't play with your mobile phone when walking]
"Didn't you send me a message and I got back?" Gu Qingyan typed words while slowly walking forward, "You are the one who walks, don't play with your mobile phone."
[Chu Shanye: Is that song good? Do you like it? γ
[Chu Shanye: Next time we listen to something else, okay? γ
The corners of Gu Qingyan's lips curled slightly, and he replied with the word "good".
He took a deep breath and put his phone back in his pocket after locking the screen, feeling that he was even stepping on the ground with a much lighter step, as if there was a balloon in his chest that was slowly inflating, making his whole body feel like he was about to fly.
Wen Qiao opened the door for him, and after seeing the smile on his face that couldn't be hidden, he quipped, "What's wrong?" Why are you so happy today?"
"Not really."
Gu Qingyan put the schoolbag back in his seat and suddenly asked, "Wen Qiao, have you heard a song called "Waiting for You to Get Out of Class"?" How could it be that you haven't heard of it?" "That's Jay's song, and our high school wake-up bell at noon is his song."
After he finished speaking, he coughed lightly and touched his head a little embarrassed: "What, I was a member of the guitar club in high school, and I had a crush on a girl at the time, so I played this song to her at the guitar club after school, and I touched her badly.
Do you want to play it to the girl you like?
"After all, this song is about secret love," Wen Qiao sighed, "I was young at that time, and I felt that my secret love was very emotional, as if I was a knight who guarded the world. But now if you ask me what that girl's name is and what she looks like, to be honest, I can't remember.
Gu Qingyan's question seemed to have turned on a certain switch for him, and when he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth, he hummed the song "Waiting for You to Get Out of Class".
He looked at Wen Qiao's back, took a change of clothes and simply went to the shower to take a shower, and then came out, and when he opened his schoolbag and saw the shabby little book, he remembered what Chu Hao wanted to say today.
In fact, he was not interested in Chu Hao, but he was very interested in what Chu Hao said about Chu Shanye.
Gu Qingyan climbed onto the bed with the small notebook in his hand, and as soon as the bed curtain was drawn, Chu Shanye's phone called.
He stealthily pulled back the curtain of the bed and peeked out.
Li Yang is on video with his girlfriend, Wen Qiao is wearing headphones to laugh at himself, and the No. 3 bed, which is empty all year round, is still empty. No one paid attention to him.
He picked up the phone and whispered, "Hello?"
"Are you in the dorm?" Chu Shanye asked him, "Tell me next time, don't let me worry." Gu said "um" lightly.
He would also report his itinerary to Chu Hao in the past, and thought that Chu Hao should also report it to him in the same way, but found that the other party didn't seem to care about this matter at all. For this reason, he also had an unpleasant quarrel with Chu Hao, but the result always ended with Chu Hao convincing him with that mouth that could tell the dead to live.
"I remember," he said, "I'll tell you later." "It's not that you have to be how."
Chu Shanye's voice was a little more cramped: "That's it...... I'm just worried about you, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, it's okay. "Are we unacquainted?" Gu Qingyan opened the small book and asked him, "So polite?"
Nor did it.
Chu Shanye coughed lightly: "Isn't this a little unskilled in chasing people at the beginning? You wait for me to practice for a few days, and make sure we get to know each other as well as if we were wearing a pair of pants.
The background sound on the opposite side was very noisy, Gu Qingyan could hear Du Xingxian making a noise and asking Tong Ran to rank with him, and he could also hear that Cheng Kai seemed to have found a certain team's private snacks and was losing his temper.
He is a quiet character, but it is very reassuring to listen to such a noisy background sound.
"On September 7, 20xx, I got out of school with him."
"On October 12, 20xx, I quietly stuffed an umbrella in his schoolbag, how can someone always forget to bring an umbrella, it's really a headache." "On November 17, 20xx, I secretly took a picture while he was asleep, and I felt like a thief."
Gu Qingyan was concentrating on looking at the "diary" written by the owner of the notebook one by one, and Chu Shanye in the earpiece suddenly asked him, "What are you doing?"."
;
"Look at things," he said, "what about you?"
"I'm writing to you...... Letters, love letters? I don't know what it is, but I'm writing something. Chu Shanye said, as if he had shifted a place to make a call, and the noise in the background gradually became quieter, and finally fell silent.
He must have gone upstairs and went back to his room.
"What letter?" Gu Qingyan asked, why did you suddenly remember to write this?
"If you want to write, you can write it."
Chu Shanye did hear the sound of the paper "whooshing" and turning: "How to start?" My dear...... Dear words?"
His words seemed to pass through the earpiece of the mobile phone, and directly crashed into Gu Qingyan's ears, burning his ears: "Who are you taking advantage of?
"I didn't take advantage," Chu Shanye chuckled, "Don't you all say that when you write English essays? Dear Li Hua, why am I taking advantage of Dear now when I write Dear's words?
But when he spoke just now, he clearly bit the word "dear" heavily, and he didn't believe it if he wasn't quietly taking advantage of him.
Dear Yanyan, it's 10:20 p.m. Beijing time, and I'm writing this love letter to you......
I don't know what kind of habit Chu Shanye has in this again, just write a letter to someone, I have to read it word by word, the more I read Gu Qingyan, the more embarrassed I felt, and whispered: "Don't read it."
Hmm, why don't you read it?
Chu Shanye seemed to be lying on the bed, with a somewhat nasal voice in his voice, sounding aggrieved: "Anyway, you have to see it sooner or later, what's wrong with Niannian?
After he finished speaking, he sighed, and seemed to be very distressed: "But I don't seem to be able to write this kind of thing all the time, whether it is a letter or a love letter, I am short of words on paper."
Gu Qingyan keenly caught the information in his words and asked, "'Always"?
"I didn't give it to anyone, I wrote it to you," Chu Shanye smiled, "Brother, why are you so excited? Aren't you jealous?" When did you write it to me?"
Gu lightly grabbed the corner of the notebook: "I don't remember." β
"It's the summer of my junior year of high school and your freshman year," Chu Shanye sighed, Sure enough, you don't remember what I did when I didn't like it, I was so sad. β
It's not that I don't remember.
How could it not be remembered?
br /> came back that summer, Gu Qingyan originally wanted to care about her boyfriend's younger brother's college entrance examination results, and by the way, she would help apply for a better volunteer, but she didn't expect Chu Shanye to say goodbye without saying goodbye, and the two didn't even have time to add a contact information.
He stood outside Chu Shanye's room, looking at the empty wardrobe and desk inside after being packed and cleaned up, and felt as if there was an empty piece in his heart, half uncomfortable and half uncomfortable.
Anyway, I am also a person who grew up together from childhood to adulthood, and I am in such a hurry, and I don't want to say a word to him?
Gu Qingyan turned around a little disappointed, and happened to meet Chu Hao who came out of the elevator.
"What about your brother? Where did he go?" Gu Qingyan asked Chu Hao.
Chu Hao raised his eyebrows and glanced at the room vacated by Chu Shanye: "He, he said that he went to play e-sports, and left this morning after a fight with his parents.
Playing esports?
This was really an incomprehensible thing for Gu Qingyan at that time.
"Didn't he leave anything to say to me?" Gu Qingyan asked, Not a word?
Chu Hao was silent for a while, and shrugged: "No, not a word, he's just a little beast with no conscience and can't be raised, even his parents can contradict him, don't expect him to want to say anything to you."
β¦β¦
Gu Qingyan's chest rose and fell violently, and his belated anger almost engulfed him.
He is rarely angry, but now he is so angry that his hands are shaking, and he can't wait to go to the dormitory of the School of Materials and beat him up immediately. Chu Hao is too much, right? Don't even want your face? What benefits can he get from slandering Chu Shanye?
From that motion sickness medicine to the farewell letter that Chu Shanye inadvertently mentioned this time, how many things were told to him by Chu Hao after being maliciously distorted?
How many times did he misunderstand Chu Shanye for such a long time?
Chu Shanye heard the silence on the other side of the phone, and seemed to understand what Gu Qingyan was angry about, but instead came to comfort him: "Hey, I know who did the good thing, it doesn't matter, it's all over anyway. I'll write you a new letter now, write a long one, and I'll give it to you myself when I'm done, okay?
As if he was afraid that Gu Qingyan was still angry, Chu Shanye also deliberately took a photo and sent it over, and in the photo was a few words he had just written down with Gu Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan glanced at the photo absentmindedly, but his eyes suddenly stopped, and he hurriedly spread out the book and turned to the page he had just read:
"On March 14, 20xx, it was raining, and I took a ride home with him and gave him a song by Jay,
He said he didn't understand. β
The song he didn't understand at the time, and the crooked handwriting that was too similar to the photo, all silently illustrated a fact that he had long ruled out at this momentβ
This "diary" that fell out of Chu Hao's bag was Chu Shanye's.
Gu Qingyan's hand trembled slightly, almost unable to suppress the emotions stirring in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "Chu Shanye, did you really not write a diary when you were in high school?"
"Diary?" Chu Shanye repeated, with doubts in his voice, "I don't remember that I ever wrote a diary, but I seem to be willing to write something in my notebook, if you say this, you may indeed have been, but ......
That's right.
This book full of thoughts is Chu Shanye's thing, and the "H" in it refers to Chu Hao, and the "he" who carries strong love is Gu Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan clicked on WeChat, passed the friend application he thought he would never pass in his life, and smashed the scolding on his face before the other party could react:
Chu Hao, you are really a shameless thing.
"Chu Shanye didn't say goodbye in his junior year of high school, you lied to me, right?" What else have you lied to me about all these years?
