i go to utopia

The next morning, Qiu Shui was woken up by the phone in front of the hotel desk, saying that Li Cuo had asked him to wake him up at 08:30 in the morning when he left yesterday. Qiu Shui shrank into the quilt and answered. He took out his mobile phone and squinted his eyes to send a message to Li Cuo.

"I'm up."

After waiting for a while, Li Cu got up from the bed without replying to the message.

When he went downstairs to check out, he thought about it and asked, "Did the person in 306 who came with me last night check out?"

The front desk asked him to wait a while to check, and then told him that he hadn't checked out yet.

Qiu Shui nodded slowly. The phone in his pocket vibrated. It hadn't been charged all night, and the red light on the phone's battery had already turned on.

Li Cuo texted him ah, good morning.

Qiu Shui couldn't help but secretly smiled, and then he thanked the sleepy lady at the front desk, walked out of the hotel gate and packed two breakfasts at a nearby breakfast shop.

He walked back to the hotel with breakfast, took the elevator to the third floor, found the house number 306, reached out and knocked on the door twice.

There was no answer to the knock on the door, but with the rare patience in his life, he stretched out his finger and knocked twice more.

There was the sound of slippers walking inside, and the door was opened. Cui Xiang, who was wearing a T-shirt and messy hair and looked like he hadn't woken up, opened the door: "Who, it's so annoying——"

Qiu Shui stretched out his hand to lift the breakfast he was carrying, his face remained expressionless as usual: "Early?"

Cui Xiang was stunned for a while, and finally opened the door sideways to let him in, with an unhappy expression on his face: "Why, what's the matter?"

Qiu Shui packed two sets of noodles at the breakfast shop downstairs, put them on the table and asked him, "Do you eat spicy or non-spicy?"

Cui wanted to go to the toilet to brush his teeth, and replied with a muffled voice, "It's not spicy."

Qiu Shui pushed the non-spicy portion aside, opened the packed paper box, took out disposable chopsticks and began to eat his own noodles with lowered eyes.

When Cui Xiang came out after brushing his teeth and washing his face, the man had already eaten half. He dragged his twisted leg and walked slowly to the table. Before he sat down, he sneered: "What are you doing?" Enough of pretending, are you now timid?"

Qiu Shui raised his eyes to stare at him, and his dark eyes stared at Cui Xiang calmly.

Cui Xiang was angry at first and didn't want to show Qiu Shui a good face, but he became inexplicably embarrassed by Qiu Shui's indifferent eyes, and he gave Qiu Shui a blank look from embarrassment.

Only then did Qiu Shui say without emotion, "I'm apologizing to you."

Cui wanted to sit down, but sneered when he heard this.

Qiu Shui continued calmly, "I really shouldn't fight with you."

Cui Xiangxiang suddenly recalled that he was beaten and scolded "fuck" in a low voice.

Qiu Shui handed him the disposable chopsticks on the table with a very calm expression: "But please don't speak so harshly in the future."

Qiu Shui thought that if Li Cu had handled this matter instead, he would have said the same thing.

Cui Xiang's face darkened, and Qiu Shui didn't let go of his chopsticks. He said blankly, "As for your own affairs, I don't care at all, and I'm not interested in talking to anyone."

Cui Xiang's expression was still grim, but he reached out to take the chopsticks that Qiushui handed over. If he was upset, he could find a group of good friends in his city to secretly press Qiushui on the ground and beat him up, but this would definitely make two people enter In a bad state, Cui thought that although he felt that he was not afraid at all, he thought about what his brother Qiushui said last night. Everyone may be lucky once or twice, but it is impossible to be lucky forever. Don't look at the appearance in the eyes, and start a ruthless posture of beating people without saying a word, maybe how crazy this person can go.Cui Xiangxiang has now apologized to himself. Although he doesn't think he has much sincerity, it's not difficult to go down the steps. He's just sloppy and unforgiving, not a fool.

After Qiu Shui handed out the chopsticks, he fell silent and continued to eat the noodles in his bowl with lowered eyes. There was a thin layer of red oil floating on the noodle soup. He felt that he had successfully solved the matter.Although in his own logic he would only say to people like Cui Xiang——I can apologize to you, but I don’t have to beat you up if you talk like this in the future, but I can always think of many things when you make me unhappy There is no way to make you happy.

He didn't say that, because Li Cu told him last night that he would be roommates with this person in college for more than three years, and the relationship should not be frozen.

The two of them finished their breakfast with each other's thoughts. At nine o'clock, Qiushui helped Cui want to go downstairs to check out. He stood at the front desk and waited for the rounds. He touched the mobile phone in his pocket and wanted to talk to Li Cu He showed off that he had already settled the matter and would not have any more conflicts with his roommates in the future. He took out the phone and found that it had been turned off due to a lack of battery. He pouted and put the phone back into his pocket.

In the morning, there are two advanced mathematics classes. Because there is no class in the afternoon, some students in the class have already asked for leave in advance or skipped classes to go home because of the National Day holiday. All hung up, Qiu Shui sat in the third row, and sent Li Cuo a message with his head down—"I will go to work in the milk tea shop in the afternoon, and after I am done, I will go to the supermarket to buy some flour and meat stuffing and go home to make dumplings." ?”

Li Cu was probably busy, and Qiu Shui stuffed the phone back into his pocket when the high math teacher finished ordering and didn't reply.

After class, he went back to the dormitory to pack up his things, carried his schoolbag and headed for the milk tea shop, and when he was about to reach his destination, Li Cu called him.

Qiu Shui was walking on the road while twisting the cap of the mineral water bottle with one hand, and at the same time took out his mobile phone and stuck it to his ear: "Hello?"

His voice seemed to be soaked in some sweet water. The word spit out from his mouth circled and got into his ear, which made him pause for a moment, and then he raised his head and took a sip of the mineral spring water.

There was a slight smile in Li Cu's voice: "What did you have for lunch?"

Qiu Shui just ate a pancake with an egg in it, he hesitated for a while before replying slowly: "Eat the cafeteria."

Li Cu also said slowly, then said with a smile: "I also eat in the cafeteria."

Qiu Shui squinted his eyes comfortably under the sun, and began to ask nonsense in a low voice: "Is it delicious?"

Li Cu said: "Next time you are on holiday, I will bring you to eat and eat."

Qiu Shui hummed: "Okay."

Li Cu then teased out another sentence: "I heard that the family members seem to be able to offer a discount."

Qiu Shui felt that the voice was drilled into his brain from his ears along the early autumn wind, and he blushed suddenly in the street with people coming and going, and after a while he lowered his voice and asked calmly: "Then how can you judge? Not family members? Will your company cafeteria close down?"

Li Cu was amused by him and laughed a few times. After laughing, he said slowly, "I'll go shopping at the supermarket after I get home together in the evening."

Qiu Shui hummed softly.

After hanging up the phone, he squinted his eyes and took another sip of mineral water.

Lan Yue, the owner of the milk tea shop, came back to the shop at around three o'clock in the afternoon. She followed the part-time clerk who was studying in an art school and walked in through the shop door laughingly.

At that time, there were no customers in the shop. Qiu Shui lazily took a book and stood in front of the cash register to read. Lan Yue came in and opened her mouth and said, "Qiu Shui pour me a glass of water for sister."

Qiu Shui ruthlessly refused: "No, you pour it yourself."

Lan Yue came over and patted the cash register, pretending to be aggrieved: "What's the matter, my sister paid you for nothing?"

Qiu Shui lowered his drooping eyes while reading, and asked very seriously, "Will you be paid to pour tea for you?"

Lan Yue elongated her tone: "You are an old man, why is it so difficult to communicate!"

Qiu Shui thought for a while, and looked at Lan Yue with a pair of eyes: "My sister is not old at all." Then he took an empty glass and put it in Lan Yue's hand, "So my sister poured water by herself."

Lan Yue smiled coaxingly away from Qiushui, picked up the water glass, pointed in the direction of Qiushui, and hummed: "Stop seducing me, sister, I don't want to be in love with younger sisters!"

Qiu Shui answered her calmly: "Sister, don't think too much."

Lan Yue is very useful for Qiu Shui's tricks. She turned around with a smile and prepared to pour water by herself. When Qiu Shui lowered her head and continued to read, she could faintly see the bruises under his bangs. She turned back and tapped her forehead. Location: "What's going on, did you fight with someone?"

Qiu Shui said solemnly: "Well, I have a slight concussion, can I ask for a day off tomorrow?"

After he finished speaking, he frowned slightly, and he thought, some habits are really carved into the bones of people, just like people will drink water when they are thirsty, and it has become an instinctive reaction in this way.

Qiu Shui pursed his mouth as if mocking himself, and when he lifted it up again, he stretched out his hand to part the hair on his forehead, revealing the bruise on his forehead: "I got into a fight with my roommate last night and hit the wall."

Lan Yue clicked her tongue twice, and asked curiously, "Why are you fighting with someone?"

Qiu Shui shrugged his nose slightly, and replied, "Because he bullied me."

Upon hearing this, Lan Yue rolled her sleeves pretendingly: "Do you want my sister to beat him up for you?"

Qiu Shui's eyes narrowed slightly. He suddenly couldn't tell whether the woman in front of him was Lan Yue or Liu Meijing, who was in his high school class. He wondered if he used to pretend to be pitiful in front of each other every day to deceive her Compassion then makes the other person feel that he needs her very much and makes her feel that he likes her.

Qiu Shui's eyes drooped, he lowered his head and took Lan Yue's water glass that was still on the table, he turned around and poured Lan Yue a glass of cold water, and he also picked up a slice of lemon and threw it into the water glass. When he turned around, he said: Sorry: "I'm sorry Miss Yue, I lied to you, I don't have a concussion."

Lan Yue's eyes opened, she took the water glass, took a sip of the lemon-flavored water, and laughed: "You didn't have a concussion?" She paused, her voice was very happy, "That's good."

Qiu Shui pursed his lips. He looked at Lan Yue with his eyes, as if observing her. After a while, he slightly bent his eyes and smiled at her.

Lan Yue has a careless personality and obviously doesn't care that Qiu Shui tricked her into asking for leave. She stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and said, "But you're also injured, so I'll give you two days off. I just closed the store for two days to find My sisters are going out to play." She said here and said twice, "I just went to his school with Xiao Qi for a walk, and there is really a crew going to their school to shoot an idol drama, and they are recruiting groups to perform on the National Day."

Qiu Shui only said silently after listening to the first sentence: "Thank you, sister Lan Yue." He didn't care about the second half of the sentence. He picked up his hand and stared at the phone screen for a long time. Xiao Qi chatted with the stars who were filming idol dramas at a nearby school. His voice was loud, but Qiu Shui turned on his body’s automatic sound-proofing mode. He stared at Li Cu’s profile picture in the chat box on his phone for a while, and typed silently with his eyes down—— "miss you."

The message was not sent. He stared at these three words for a while, and then exited the chat window contentedly. He found Liu Meijing's avatar in his chat software. You can also see the chat records. The last one is the night before the college entrance examination in June this year. Liu Meijing sent him "Come on", and he replied "You too".He stared at the two cheering for a while, then lowered his eyes and sent a message to each other—"Although it has been a long time, I think I still owe you an apology."

After the news was sent, he realized that he had been blocked by the other party. Qiu Shui reached out and touched his injured forehead. His fingers felt a slight soreness when touched, and he let out a dull oh in his heart.

Lan Yue behind him reached out and pulled his clothes: "Qiu Shui, hey Qiu Shui, are you deaf?"

Qiu Shui turned to look at her, and replied without emotion: "I'm not deaf yet."

He always said some funny things with a deadpan face. Lan Yue was amused by him, and asked him cheerfully at the cash register: "Did you hear what I just said?"

Qiu Shui asked her, "What did you say?"

Lan Yue said: "The school next door is recruiting group performers. Are you chasing stars? Xiao Qi can help you find a role as the top passerby in the starring class."

Qiu Shui frowned slightly, and replied sternly: "I don't chase stars."

Lan Yue looked at him lying on the cash register. Qiu Shui was very good-looking. He usually had a life-weary face all day long, but when his eyes stared straight at you, those eyes seemed to be talking. A good-looking person will naturally give people a good impression. Lan Yue clicked her tongue and felt that Qiu Shui's face must be photogenic. She settled the account for Qiu Shui: "The scenes filmed at school are only a few days, and the students' group performances cost 70 yuan a day. , including a meal at noon."

Qiu Shui paused.

Lan Yue said, "May I talk to Xiao Qi for you?"

Qiu Shui was silent for a moment and asked, "Tomorrow?"

Lan Yue said, "Then I don't know."

Qiu Shui is a little conflicted. On the one hand, he is really short of money, but on the other hand, he really wants to cling to Li Cuo 24 hours a day.

Before the end of work that afternoon, Lan Yue still helped him talk to Xiao Qi, and said with a smile that it would be best to be a group performer who could get two lines. Qiu Shui didn't stop him, and pushed away a few minutes before the end of work The glass of the milk tea shop walked out. He took a few steps back and forth at the door with his mobile phone, and finally squatted on the steps in front of the milk tea shop and looked around for a long time to find Liu Meijing's mobile phone number. He stared at the number for a while, and finally Still found Li Cu in the chat software again, he deleted the three words "I miss you" that had been written in the chat box a few hours ago and had become a draft, and then typed slowly with his head down—"If I I did something wrong to a person a long time ago, and now I want to apologize to her, but I find that she has deleted me, should I find her again and apologize to her?"

He squatted on the ground and stared at the phone screen, and when the phone screen went dark, he poked it with his finger.

After poking it three times in a row, the phone vibrated, and Li Cu sent him a few words—then don't bother her anymore.

Qiu Shui stared at this line of words for a long time.

There was a cake shop next to the milk tea shop, and the smell of milk spread from behind Qiu Shui to his nose. Qiu Shui wiped his phone screen with his fingers, and the cake shop behind him suddenly played a song. The sound quality of the song was really bad. It sounds more like a noise on the street.

There is a crisp male voice singing in the terrible sound quality——

"I love you, love makes me who I am and protects my heart."

Qiu Shui stood up slowly from the ground. He went to the cake shop and picked out two cakes with lowered eyes. After paying the bill, he asked the shop assistant: "What song is it playing?"

The man glanced back at the music playing software, then turned to tell him with a smile, "Young Werther's troubles."

Qiu Shui said, "It's the title of a book."

The man also nodded: "It seems to be."

Qiu Shui took the cake back to the milk tea shop, and gave one to Lan Yue and Xiao Qi: "I'm leaving get off work, please eat cake."

On the way to the subway station with his schoolbag on his back, he sent Li Cuo a message: "I just heard a song called The Troubles of Young Werther."

Li Cu is probably not very busy at the moment, and he can reply to his message relatively quickly: "Is it nice?"

Qiu Shui typed: "The sound quality is not good, it's the name of a book, have you read it?"

Li Cu: "There should be an electronic version in my Kindle, you can watch it tomorrow."

Qiu Shui asked him, "What did you say?"

Li Cu's summary of the story is very brief: "A young man named Werther fell in love with a woman who was engaged, and finally committed suicide for love."

Qiu Shui replied.

He thought it was not good to die for love, and he began to hope that everyone in this world could survive for love and become a better version of himself for love.
