When Jialan Company officially received its first business, she invited Situ Shuo out for dinner.Situ Shuo took a two-hour leave of absence from the heavy study to save face.

The mother and son ordered a lot of fresh meat in the newly opened Korean barbecue restaurant.Seeing Situ Shuo carefully grilling meat and eating big mouthfuls, Jia Lan felt a little distressed.

"I'm sorry, son, Mom didn't even cook you a good meal." Jia Lan wrinkled his nose and held a tissue in his hand.

"I'm not picky eaters anymore," Situ Shuo smiled, "I can eat anything."

Jia Lan ordered shochu, poured it for the mother and son, and asked, "Why didn't you ask Xia Lei to come with you?"

Hearing Xia Lei's name came from Jia Lan's mouth, Situ Shuo immediately became a little stiff.This is not the first time my mother asked Xia Lei.In the past few months, whenever I met my mother, I could hear her asking Xia Lei.

It seems that from my mother's point of view, it's normal for me and Xia Lei to stick together.

Situ Shuo put down the wine glass, smiled wryly, rubbed his elbows on the table unnaturally, and said, "Mom, we are separated."

Jia Lan was a little surprised. He always thought that his son would be luckier than himself, and met his favorite person at the best age, and that person also liked him very much.However……

She suddenly remembered that at about this time last year, Xia Lei and Situ Shuo were still downstairs in their house, and you and I didn't want to be separated.At that time, she was thinking, the same-sex road is difficult, son, are you sure?

However, what she didn't expect was that the two children did not lose to reality, but to herself.

"Is...what...the reason?" Jia Lan asked Situ Shuo tentatively.

Situ Shuo continued to smile and said, "Probably there are better people waiting for each other."

Jia Lan didn't expect her son to be so calm about this relationship, which is much better than her, a woman in her 40s who can't handle personal problems well.He couldn't help laughing.

"Okay then," Jalan said, holding up his shochu glass, "then let's wait for that person to appear."

Situ Shuo nodded slightly, raised his wine glass and touched his mother.

Even shochu with a concentration of no more than 25 degrees will still have a spicy feeling when it passes through the throat.Although Situ Shuo has not yet reached the age of 18, he has enjoyed the rights of an adult in advance with his mother.

That night, he studied alone in the rented house, and the alcohol made him a little distracted.I don't know when it started, and the spring rain began to fall outside the window.

He opened the window and held out his palm.The rain hit his palm softly, very cool.Looking at the dim light on the playground in the distance, Situ Shuo thought about the first time he came to this room, looking for Xia Lei's favorite horizontal bar to hang on.

But now, he is short-sighted, and the whole world has become blurred. This feeling of not being able to see that person at a glance makes him very uncomfortable.

Suddenly, the mobile phone on the table rang.

Situ Shuo went to find the phone before closing the window.It was Xia Lei calling.

Ever since he rejected Xia Lei's braised pork ribs in the playground, Xia Lei never took the initiative to contact him, and rarely met him in school, as if deliberately avoiding him.

Situ Shuo stared at the phone screen, hesitating whether to answer it or not.The phone rang persistently, but he finally answered it.

"Hey?"

"Situ?" Xia Lei's voice was soft and cautious.

"En." Situ Shuo made a sound, indicating that he was listening.

"What are you doing?" Xia Lei deliberately made a relaxed tone, and then became stiff after a while, "Did I disturb your study?"

"What's the matter?" Situ Shuo hadn't heard Xia Lei's voice for a long time.

Hearing it again, he had to admit that he would still involuntarily follow that clear voice with palpitations.Perhaps in a secret place in his heart, he still longed to hear such a voice again.

"I'm going to another place to take the professional exam tomorrow." Xia Lei spoke slowly, carefully feeling Situ Shuo's breath through the phone.

"I wish you all the best." Situ Shuo returned to the window, the rain was still falling, and it was getting bigger and bigger.

"Is it the sound of rain?" Xia Lei also opened the curtains and stood by the window, asking, "Do you still remember when we came back from the planetarium for the first time, it rained heavily and we hid from the rain together at the guard's place?" ?”

The sweet scene that has been recalled countless times, the rainbow across the sky after the rain, and the silly selfie of the two teenagers have long been deeply engraved in Situ Shuo's heart. How could he forget it, so he hummed lightly.

"And when you went to the planetarium for the second time, you deliberately said that there were radioactive elements in the meteorite, which frightened the children so much that they didn't dare to touch it." Xia Lei laughed out loud.

This familiar feeling made Situ Shuo very comfortable. Holding the phone, he kept smiling.However, his intuition told him that the person on the other side of the phone was Xia Lei who had been separated for several months, so he put away his smile and asked seriously, "What's the matter with you calling?"

"I..." Xia Lei was speechless, forcibly pulled himself back from the sweet memories, and said, "I just want to tell you, I'm going to take the professional exam tomorrow. I'm a little nervous, so I want to call you."

"Oh," Situ Shuo pursed his lips, so Xia Lei, who has always been invincible, would also be nervous, "Then you work hard."

Xia Lei continued to say cautiously: "If tomorrow's professional class scores meet last year's admission criteria of City B Sports Institute, I will call you."

"What?" Situ Shuo paused for a moment, and when he asked, the other party had already hung up the phone.

City B Sports Academy?

It turns out that Xia Lei still remembers the agreement between the two of them to go to City B together?

Situ Shuo was completely flustered.

He continued to lie at the window watching the rain.There was a small piece of steel bar exposed outside the concrete window sill. He looked at the thread on it and suddenly wanted to smooth it out, as if to erase the uncertainty and panic in his heart.

Xia Lei's professional course examination has four subjects: 100-meter running, standing long jump, shot put in place, and 800-meter running.It's what he's good at.However, in the past few months, he has been strengthening his grades in cultural courses, and he has relaxed a little about professional courses.So I was very nervous during the exam.

However, after calling Situ Shuo, he immediately gained confidence.At least Situ Shuo didn't ignore him like before, and even said cheers.

When it was his turn to test, he forced himself to show confidence, mobilizing every nerve and every muscle in his body, going all out more than ever before.

He kept in mind the admission scores of professional courses of B City Physical Education College in recent years, gritted his teeth and persisted until the last subject.As a result, the results were unexpectedly good.

He felt that there was no problem at all for his entrance examination to the B City Sports Academy.

The next day, Situ Shuo really bought a file from the hardware store downstairs and came back. As long as he could not study at ease, he would take the file to the window sill to grind the small exposed steel bar.

It was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and he was still not in the mood to study. When he realized that he seemed to be waiting for Xia Lei's call, he felt that this five yuan file was really the best deal he had ever bought.

At one o'clock in the morning, Situ Shuo's cell phone turned on.He took it over to read, it was a message from Xia Lei: "Study hard, take care of your body, let's have a good chat after the college entrance examination."

Situ Shuo was a little disappointed. He guessed that Xia Lei would not call again, but his heart was filled with anticipation, even though he himself couldn't explain what he was expecting.

Xia Lei suppressed his excitement, and specially picked this time to send messages, because he was afraid of affecting Situ Shuo's study.Thinking about one o'clock in the morning, that person must have fallen asleep before sending the message that has been edited countless times.

Xia Lei closed his eyes reassuringly as he checked his phone and did not receive any new messages.The professional courses have been settled, and then I can spare some time to take care of Situ.

The author has something to say: continue tomorrow, good night!
