The following guilty

"Teacher Gu—"

Gu Heng lowered his head and kicked off the legs of the bicycle, and straightened the parking space. The wind blew through the sparse leaves above his head, as if he heard someone calling him.

"I said, Teacher Gu?"

"Ah?" Gu Heng was startled and turned around.

"I heard that you are moving? Congratulations." Aunt Qin, who has lived in the community for many years, walked over with her belly outstretched.

"Yes, thank you." Gu Heng was a little embarrassed, but smiled on his face.

"This old house is suitable for us to live in. You are still young, so you should change it to something more decent. By the way, I saw the rental you posted a few days ago. Have you rented it out?"

"It's been rented out, and we've already contacted you." Gu Heng patted the ashes on the computer bag, and while laughing, his heart became more anxious.After finishing speaking, he nodded politely, and left as if fleeing with his bag.

It was still a bit cold after entering the house, Gu Heng took off his coat and hung it on the nail by the door, rubbed his hands together, turned on the hot water, went to the kitchen and lit the fire to warm up the pork rib soup left over at noon.

Ever since he made up his mind to rent this old house last week, people always came to him to inquire about it from time to time. Although it was expected, when the blessings came overwhelmingly, Gu Heng's first reaction was to run away.

The aroma rushed to the face, and after a while, white foam appeared. Gu Heng fished it out with long chopsticks, put it in a bone china noodle bowl, poured pork rib soup, sprinkled with sesame seeds and chili oil, and brought it to the living room to enjoy alone.

After eating a bowl of noodles, the room gradually warmed up.

Gu Heng lay sideways on the sofa, pillowing his arms under his head.Hearing the crackling sound of hot water, he raised his eyes and looked into the room.

The warm yellow wallpaper, clean floor, and spotless tablecloth are all the results of his painstaking efforts. Everything in this house has remained unchanged for several years, just like how many times a fish tank has been replaced with new anchovies, and the refrigerator I have never been willing to pick those magnetic stickers... Now that I want to abandon these, no one understands how determined he is.

The hot water stopped heating up to a sufficient temperature, the wind blew outside the window, the shaking branches beat the window, cold air swept the city, but the house was so warm that it made people feel tired.

Gu Heng squinted his eyes to feel sleepy, listening to the small sound in the quiet air, he had a dream.

In the dream, Gu Heng was sleeping on the bed in his own bedroom. When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw a person in front of him, holding a thin thread, gently wrapping it around his finger, and was measuring the circumference of his finger.

In the dark bedroom, only the soft light of the desk lamp reflected the young side face, his black hair was hanging in front of his eyes, and the familiar silhouette was shaking under the light and shadow.

Gu Heng was fascinated by watching, and couldn't help opening his mouth to call his name, but found that he couldn't make a sound!

He was in a hurry, and he recited those two words tens of thousands of times in his heart, but the more he recited, the more he couldn't yell out, as if his throat was tightly strangled!

But the man raised his eyes to look at himself as if he had heard it.

With just one glance, Gu Heng was shocked!Goosebumps all over my body, thinking of everything.

No...we've been separated, we've been separated for five years.Why is he here? ?

The man leaned forward with the light on his back, his eyes were like black stones in a deep pool, cold, and the words he said made his whole body drenched in cold sweat instantly.

"Teacher Gu"

"I am back."

Boom!Gu Heng's dream was completely confused in an instant!All the pictures from the past flew out, flashing back and forth in front of my eyes...

steamy bathroom,

On rainy nights,

That dusty sports equipment room,

That dropped tennis ball,

In that late-night noodle restaurant, the words spoken by touching each other's fingertips...

The past events in the dream are like a movie, frame by frame jumping pages, Gu Heng's brain is in chaos!His fingers gripped the sofa cushions under him tightly, and his feet moved wildly,

Suddenly, I woke up.

The wind outside the window was still howling, and the room was so quiet that one could hear a heartbeat.

It has been a long time since I dreamed of him, and the thing I was afraid of finally came.

Gu Heng took a steady breath, stretched out his two well-jointed hands, hung in the air, trembling slightly, blocking the warm yellow light bulb on the roof of the house.

Then he picked up his phone and typed a line seriously.

"The house is no longer rented, sorry."

-----------

In City J on January [-]rd, the weather forecast said there would be a northwesterly wind. Gu Heng calculated that riding a bicycle this morning should be easier with this wind, so he couldn't help but speed up.

When it was cold, he took out the thickest short woolen coat at home, and covered the thick wool plaid necker up to the tip of his nose, revealing only a pair of bright, tearful eyes blown by the wind , Just rode all the way to school.

Gu Heng saw it before entering the school gate, and there were more people coming and going in the school today than usual.He hesitated for a while before he remembered that N University had always had an unwritten custom that on the first day of class after New Year's Day, graduate alumni would return to school to visit their teachers.

The uncle in the mail room also stood up early to see the scene. Seeing Gu Heng riding a bicycle from a distance, he hurried into the room to take out today's newspaper.Gu Heng subscribed to this newspaper for six years, and went to the guard room to get it every day, the two of them had a tacit understanding.

"Mr. Gu, good morning!

"Morning!" Gu Heng got out of the car, looking refreshed, took off the tightly wound scarf with a smile, and stuffed it into the basket in front of the bike.

"Today, this school almost doesn't know each other."

"It's like this every year, I'm used to it."

"There are a lot of students coming to see you again. I have to be busy today."

"Hehe, I have few students." Gu Heng tapped the edge of the newspaper with his hands, looked up at the playground with a smile on his head, "It doesn't matter if you can come back to see me, students who have graduated have their own things to do."

"That's the reason, you go slowly."

Gu Heng let out an eh, and stepped into the car again.

I stayed up all night yesterday to rewrite the lesson plan, but the progress still needs to be slowed down a bit, the pressure is high, Gu Heng thought to himself.

I am one of the most junior teachers among the teachers in the atmosphere, I have never thought about competing for excellence and evaluation, and I have no intention of going upstream silently, but I must do my best in my job, at least so that the above people can't find faults.

Just thinking about it, one didn't pay attention, and a figure rushed out from the intersection. The sound of "ah" pulled Gu Heng back from his thoughts.

Gu Heng hurriedly stopped the car, turned to one side, and staggered out of the car to check the situation.

A picture suddenly appeared in my mind.

"Teacher Gu, are you okay?" The person on the ground patted his feet and stood up. It was a student in his class.

"I'm fine, do you hurt? Did it break?"

"Hey, it's okay, the flesh is thick." The student looked relaxed and shook his hand with a smile.

The temperature of the air conditioner in the office was very high, which made Gu Heng dizzy. He reached out and flipped through a few small calendars on the desk, and then picked up a thick stack of student papers and knocked them on the desk. He was holding a stack of papers and resting his chin on it.

It's so similar, it's palpitating.

It was the same way when I met that person for the first time.It was like the past happened all over again.

"Teacher Gu?"

"Mr. Gu, what are you thinking? Here, here is the form for your class."

"Ah? Okay." Gu Heng came back to his senses, put down the paper, smiled apologetically at the teacher next to him, and said casually, "School is so lively today."

"Yeah, the back-to-school day is getting bigger and bigger every year. I just heard from director Chen of the art building that Liu Yuan, who graduated a few years ago, is now in H City."

Liu Yuan.

Gu Heng's heart twitched and he panicked.he came?Why is he here?Is it in this school?

The other teachers in the office got excited when they heard the name, and they started discussing, "Hey, I keep hearing Director Chen mentioning him—he hasn't been back for several years, so he went to City H right after graduation?"

"Is it the kid who won the National Sculpture Award and was exhibited in school at the time?"

"It was him. Did you invest in a gallery later?"

"The gallery can make a little money. I heard that people have already started working with the family. The building materials project is quite large. It seems that this year they will completely cover the wall of the old staff building in our school."

"Yo, that must be related, I remember him..." a teacher lowered his voice, talking like a mosquito.

Gu Heng sat silently in front of the computer, his hands on his knees became tighter and tighter, and his chest couldn't breathe.He deliberately dropped the pen, and hurriedly got under the desk.

After such a long time, when I heard that name, I still dared to hide and close myself.

I don't know how long I've been hiding under the desk, when suddenly there was the sound of footsteps, loud and clear, echoing in the empty corridor.The office door behind him was pushed open with a creak.Before Gu Heng could react, the person behind him said three words, and the pen he picked up in his hand dropped with a click.

"Teacher Gu."

Hum!Gu Heng's whole world was quiet.

this voice...

This voice is so familiar...

Gu Heng's heart was beating wildly, and his back was trembling with nervousness, but a burst of courage came out of nowhere, and he suddenly turned his head——

He is back.
