Chapter 19 The Maze

A few days after the Qingming Festival, Ji Jiuxia was finally going back to school, so he forced Gu Xi to see him off, but Gu Xi was reluctant at first, because maybe Ji Jiuxia's parents would also be there.Even if Ji Jiuxia asked him to treat himself as an ordinary friend, he was still awkward, and he never felt that he had such an obligation.

But in the end I went anyway, stimulated by Gu Xiao's boredom.

When they arrived at the station, Ji Jiuxia was sitting on a chair receiving his mother's instructions, Gu Xi walked over slowly, not wanting to interrupt them.

Ji Jiuxia saw Gu Xi and waved to him, "Xiao Xi!"

This title was called by Ji Jiuxia for several days in a row, but he still didn't get used to it. With a strange mood, Gu Xi obediently greeted Ji Jiuxia's mother: "Auntie."

Du's mother looked at him a little strangely, as if she was confirming something, Gu Xi thought she suspected that she was from an unknown place, so she slowly explained: "Hi auntie, my name is Gu Xi, I'm brother Jiu Xia's friend, I'm here to see you off send him."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Gu Xi only felt that when he finished saying this, Ji Jiuxia looked at him inexplicably with the corner of his mouth curled up, his eyes became eager, as if he wanted to eat some of himself.

And Mother Du also looked at him with bright eyes, making Gu Xi involuntarily imagine himself as a priceless piece of gold, shining like a golden light.

"Is Xiaoxi a local?" Mother Du asked.

"Well, I'm in the third year of high school in the city, and I'm Brother Jiu Xia's junior." In order to prevent Du's mother from thinking too much, Gu Xi declared his family name without hesitation.

Mother Du kept nodding her head, looking back and forth at Gu Xi, "The third year of high school is very hard, and your child is quite thin, so you need to eat more! If you have any difficulties, just ask Ji Jiuxia, he is not good at anything else. , just study is fine, by the way, how long have you known each other?"

"Five or six days..." Gu Xi said honestly.

"We've been playing together for five or six days recently, and we've known each other for a long time." Ji Jiuxia added, "Mom, I'm starting to check tickets now, why don't you go back first, I'll chat with Xiaoxi for a while."

Mother Du smiled happily, and lightly rubbed Gu Xi's head, making Gu Xi feel a little uncomfortable, "Okay, I won't delay you young people, I'll go first, Xiao Xi, I will often come to play at home from now on! Auntie left first."

Gu Xi vaguely agreed a few words, couldn't bear the aunt's enthusiasm for a while, and went to line up with Ji Jiuxia, and very generously waited outside the ticket gate until Ji Jiuxia's figure was out of sight before leaving the station.

While staggering on the bus, he suddenly received a text message on his mobile phone, it was from Ji Jiuxia, he opened it curiously, his face turned green and then red after seeing the content, it was so exciting.

——Xiaoxi, I have already come out with my family, my mother just regarded you as a daughter-in-law [laughs] Take the college entrance examination and wait for me when I come back.

Who is waiting for you to come back!He's not fucking sick again!

There is a feeling of being pitted, even if I am sitting upright, I still feel very uncomfortable, as if I have been splashed with a dirty and indelible color.

Gu Xi pinched the phone, wishing he could throw it out of the window.

It is necessary to break up with Ji Jiuxia, homosexuality is not terrible, the terrible thing is that he will pull himself to be gay with him.

Ji Jiuxia's number cannot be deleted, he must keep that name in his phone, in case he accidentally answers a call from an unfamiliar number one day.

So in the next few days, Ji Jiuxia naturally couldn't get in touch with Gu Xi, he didn't reply to the text message, and the phone hung up in seconds.

Ji Jiuxia smiled over there, not surprised, after all, not only did Gu Xi not start liking him yet, but he was also straightforward. When he had nothing to do, he still texted and played with Gu Xi, but basically stopped making phone calls. .

Gu Xiao still reports to Gu Xi about his and Zhao Qingqing's affairs all day long, and the biggest stimulus to Gu Xi is to study harder with the desire to "stay away from Gu Xiao".For nothing else, just showing off to Gu Xiao all day long, he would have enough excuses to run away.

——What is it, Gu Xiaoming knows that their relationship is not good, and he still shows off how good his relationship with others is all day long. Isn't this intentional to make him feel uncomfortable?In the future, if we are far away, it doesn't matter how Gu Xiaoai treats others, as long as he is out of sight and out of mind.

This afternoon Gu Xi was on duty, Gu Xiao said on the surface that he was waiting for him to go home together, but actually went to the next class to find Zhao Qingqing.

Gu Xi didn't see Gu Xiao come back after finishing cleaning, he hesitated whether to go to the next class to have a look, a classmate who was on duty came up and bumped him on the shoulder, and asked, "Gu Xi, is Gu Xiao dating the girl in the next class?" Woolen cloth?"

In the past, the students were very self-conscious and would not propose another person on both sides of this brother, but recently the two brothers seemed to be less hostile, and instead often fought together, no different from ordinary friends, and everyone relaxed.

But Gu Xi frowned, his eyes were filled with distaste that couldn't be concealed, he was most annoyed by this topic now.

He is very clear about the concept of "girlfriend". It is an existence that can almost sit on an equal footing with his parents. Gu Xiao treated him so badly when he didn't have a girlfriend. After having a girlfriend, he must not even bother to treat him badly.

My heart suddenly became angry.

"Who knows what he loves."

The classmate didn't know, so Gu Xi had already packed his things, put on his backpack and was about to leave, the classmate asked again: "Aren't you going to wait for him to go back together?"

"Not waiting." His follower was in a hurry, so he was willing to leave?

"Then wait for me, I'll go with you." The classmate quickly packed up his things, and jumped in front of Gu Xi, "Let's go!"

Just as he walked to the bus stop, the phone suddenly vibrated violently in his pocket, and Gu Xi reluctantly pressed the answer button: "Hello."

"Where is it?" The voice on the phone sounded a little angry.

"bus stop."

"You don't know how to call me when you're gone?"

When the classmate's car arrived, he gestured to Gu Xi to say goodbye. Gu Xi waved his hand at him to say "goodbye", and then yelled over the phone: "Speak! Why did you leave first?"

Gu Xi also became angry for no reason, "I have no obligation to call you!"

"Fuck, I've stayed at school for so long and my mother is waiting for you. Why do you have any obligation to me if you leave as soon as you say?"

"I made you wait? Do you wait for me or accompany Zhao Qingqing? You know for yourself. What excuse do you use me for?"

"You," Gu Xiao felt his breath choking in his throat, "you wait there, and if you leave first, I'll talk to my parents about 'reasoning'!" After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Gu Xi gritted his teeth, angrily hung up the phone, and sat down on the chair behind him.

Now that the rush hour for work and school has passed, there are only a dozen or so people waiting for the bus. Gu Xi stares at the traffic on the main road depressedly. After a while, the bus he usually takes arrives, but he remembers Hearing Gu Xiao's warning, he didn't dare to move, and watched the car door open and close.

It seemed like I had been waiting for a long time, and every minute and every second passed very slowly.

The suffocation in his throat almost broke Gu Xi, and only then did the sound of hurried footsteps mix into the chaotic voices, and gradually broke into Gu Xi's ears. He knew it was Gu Xiao, and he just stared at Gu Xi without raising his head. on the road.

"Gu Xi, can you be reasonable? I don't try my best to follow you these days. Since I was a child, I have been so sympathetic to someone. It's not because my father said you are my brother! But what about you? Shake me face every now and then, but tell me, how did I offend you, a big Buddha this time? Even if you are sentenced to death, you have to understand it, right?" Gu Xiao yelled, blushing.

But Gu Xi stopped after speaking, but felt disheartened.

He finally understood why Gu Xiao had inexplicably changed his attitude towards him 180 degrees during this period of time. He had made himself angry quite a few times before, but he was never willing to admit his mistakes.Gu Xiao is now occasionally willing to take care of him and treat him well. It turned out that it was because Gu Pingshao did ideological work for him behind his back, not for himself, but because Gu Xiao was an obedient child and was listening to Gu Pingshao's words. .

It turned out to be fake.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Xi felt that his head was extremely heavy, but his hands and feet were so light that he seemed to be able to float up. He squeezed his throat and moved his mouth, then closed it again, and then slowly said in a tired voice: " I'm sorry, I was wrong, I thought you wanted to go with Zhao Qingqing more."

Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and seemed to have sensed something was wrong, raised her hand and patted the back of Gu Xi's head gently, and said softly: "Stupid, I don't go with her, I just happened to see her helping the teacher with homework, so I was kind." Go help her, instead of waiting for you, I will leave early."

Gu Xi didn't speak any more, Gu Xiao pouted his mouth, but stopped talking.

The two of them waited for the bus together silently. When the bus came, they sat with a lot of seats in the middle as usual, and walked dully all the way after getting off the bus.

Due to various delays, the sky had already darkened, and the lights behind him were brightly lit.

It was also because of these delays that they changed their direction when they should have been on the same track.

In this mess later, Gu Xi could only regret it.

The community they live in is still some distance away from the bus station, and the location is relatively secluded in order to avoid the noise interference from the street as much as possible.There are many people coming and going during the day, and occasionally there are some snacks on the side of the road. At night, it is unbelievably quiet. There are only a few lonely street lights on a small road, which illuminate the ground orange brightly. .

Gu Xi's cell phone rang again, "Mom, I'm already in my third year of high school, so I'm still a boy at that age, so don't worry about anything if anything happens...well," he said, glancing at Gu Xiao, "Here, we've already got off the bus... No need, what else to pick up after a few steps... Oh, I see, we definitely don't want to be playful, just go home... Well, goodbye."

"Mom is urging you again?" Gu Xiao asked.

"Ah."

"This road is not safe. Someone was robbed there a few days ago, and I heard that he was even stabbed. For someone as thin as you, I guess he will confess in a few moments." Gu Xiao put his hands in his pockets, She raised her eyebrows contemptuously, and began to tease Gu Xi again.

Gu Xiao has a very useful ability, that is, forgetting in a blink of an eye, and it is definitely not his style to be silent and sigh.

Gu Xi glanced at him, then turned around and muttered: "...you are not much better."

He didn't intend for Gu Xiao to hear this sentence, and in fact Gu Xiao did not hear it, Gu Xiao thought he was still in trouble and refused to talk to him.

As he was walking, Gu Xiao suddenly grabbed Gu Xi, and Gu Xi's arm could be cut off with great strength. Before Gu Xi could react, he was dragged to a side alley.

"What the hell did you suddenly say..." Gu Xi was annoyed, he was already in a bad mood, but Gu Xiao was still messing around, forcing people to fight!

However, before he finished yelling, Gu Xiao covered his mouth with one hand.

He slammed into the wall heavily behind him, and Gu Xiao's whole body was stuck in front of him, and he could feel Gu Xiao's breath on his face.

"What do you say, those people are in front, and four or five big men are smoking under the tree over there." Gu Xiao whispered.The low voice with the crispness of a teenager made Gu Xi's ears feel a little hot.

Unable to explain the reason, he suddenly felt that the voice was particularly pleasant, and secretly recollected it in his mind for a while.Imagining Gu Xiao's thin but beautifully colored lips opening and closing, slowly floating out those words.

After thinking about it for a while, um, it's really nice to hear, I really hope that Gu Xiao can say more.

But looking at him, his face was no longer facing him, he turned his head, his eyes fell outside the alley, and he seemed not to talk anymore, he could only see his beautiful jawline and neck that moved his Adam's apple .

A bit disappointed.

Gu Xi stretched out his hand to push Gu Xiao away, and poked his head out to look at it himself. Against the background of the night, the slanting figures under the tree had an indescribable sense of decadence, just like the sad series that photographers like to shoot. artistic photo.

Pulling his head back, Gu Xi suggested in a low voice: "Let's go around the alley."

"Are you afraid?" Gu Xiao laughed.

"It's a fool's thing to hit an egg against a rock. It doesn't matter if you're afraid or not." Gu Xi rolled his eyes, turned away and walked towards the other end of the alley.
