mountain sleep

The summer vacation of the second year of junior high school is only ten days, and they will soon come back to make up classes. The students will enter the state of preparation for the third year of junior high school ahead of schedule.

As soon as Yao Ge was on vacation, he packed his luggage for Kawashima City.But before leaving, he found out the address he had memorized and took a taxi to the park above.It is not difficult to find, it is said to be next to the small fountain.

The park is bustling with people walking, walking their dogs, and bringing children.Yao Ge held up his collar to let in the air, and he was sweating from the heat after walking a few steps this summer.

"Liu, help me check this speaker, is it ready?"

"Brother, your listening position should be placed a little behind, and our cable is not long enough..."

"Have you adjusted the height of the microphone?"

Yao Ge didn't approach, and found a bench a little further away to sit down.The guy with the glasses is the bass player, the guy with the acne is the drummer, I don’t know if the lead guitar is a girl with short hair at the ears or a guy standing there fiddling with the microphone.

It should be the seniors and sisters of the No. [-] Middle School, because some of the people who are familiar with them are wearing No. [-] Middle School uniforms.

"Hello, thank you all for being here. We are 'Yunxiao'. Today is our first outdoor performance. The main reason is to send off our brother Nan." It seems that the lead singer is a boy wearing earrings. The voice is relatively low, a bit like falling into the abyss.

"Hopefully he can play music more freely when he goes to college."

It's about the acne-prone drummer, because he hit a random chord in response to that.Yao Ge's position was blocked by others, so he couldn't see clearly.

"And then our first song—"

It was "Holiday" by the Green Day band. The drumbeat pierced through the noisy crowd and hit Yao Ge's ears.

The drummer is very strong and the rhythm is very accurate.Bass is a little weaker, and occasionally it can't keep up.But the lead singer has a great voice with a wide range.

More and more people stopped around, including an aunt who was covering her ears curiously while standing on her feet, and a young couple who stood far away and hugged their children.

The child screamed and ran around happily, and accidentally bumped into Yao Ge's leg.He waved his hand and signaled to the child's mother that it was okay.A few young people in the crowd have already changed four songs, which are generally pretty good. There is a guitar playing the wrong melody, and others can follow up quickly.The lead singer is relatively stable, and there is no out-of-tune.

"The last song is "Broad Sea and Sky." Su Songlin took a breath, holding the microphone in front of him with both hands, and closed his eyes.

"Today I watched the snow drift by in the cold night

Flying far away with a chilled heart..."

"How many times have you faced cold eyes and ridicule

Never give up the ideal in my heart

Trance for a moment

feeling of loss

Unknowingly, it has faded..."

When the show was over, Yao Ge walked up to the boy who was tidying up the wires on the ground: "Where do you usually perform?"

Su Songlin raised his head, he had just noticed this boy wearing a peaked cap, and he stood there quietly in the crowd, as if he was not moved by their emotions.

"We play around, mostly at school, or usually by ourselves." Su Songlin still squatted down, bowed his head and did his own thing after answering.

Yao Ge squatted down and reached out to help him grab the sides of the box so that he could zip it up smoothly.

"Thank you."

"Can I watch your rehearsal?"

"Brother Lin, where did you abduct the kid from?" Cheng Zi threw herself on Su Songlin's back and waved to Yao Ge, "hello, come if you like, we don't refuse anyone who comes. Isn't it?" She said while clapping She glanced at the boy in her arms.

Su Songlin hummed: "Come if you want. You add her on QQ, and you will be notified when there are events."

Yao Ge thanked him and was in a good mood when he returned home.Among his classmates and friends, there are very few common music interests.The peers who are learning the piano together like classical music, and Xu Zihang only likes to listen to popular Mandarin Chinese. People like Lei Zi seldom even listen to music.

Yao Ge and Xu Zihang haven't had much contact for a while, and he is busy studying for the final exam, so he doesn't have much time to surf the Internet.Ever since he voluntarily hung up the phone once when the other party was busy, he seldom called Xu Zihang again.But this time back to Kawashima City, Yao Ge still made an appointment with him.

Xu Zihang felt very helpless that Qiu Ting must follow him to see Yao Ge, he didn't want her to go but he didn't know why.

"I want to meet your good friend." Qiu Ting brought the ice cream she had eaten to Xu Zihang's mouth, but he shook his head and refused, "Didn't you say that the opportunity is rare?"

"Remember not to eat together like this later." Xu Zihang wiped his lips with his hand to make sure he wasn't touched by the ice cream. "Yao Ge doesn't like others touching his food."

"How could I?" Qiu Ting muttered, "I don't know him."

The guest came in and brought the wind chime at the door, Qiu Ting turned her head to look, the boy in white T looked around, Xu Zihang had already stood up and waved to him.

"You guys are here so early."

As soon as Yao Ge sat down, Xu Zihang pushed the orange juice ordered for him in front of him: "It's so hot outside, hurry up and drink first."

"Hello, my name is Qiu Ting." Qiu Ting didn't expect Yao Ge to be so good-looking, and she unconsciously liked him a little more, "What do you want to eat? We've already ordered it!"

Yao Ge's warm hand touched the cold glass, reducing the heat brought by the weather a little: "Let me order sirloin. Rarely 7."

"It's the same as what I ordered." Qiu Ting pushed the fruit plate in front of her. "This is the fruit we just packed. You can pack whatever else you want."

"Isn't that enough? I'll help you pack it." Xu Zihang stood up first, letting Yao Ge sit down, "I'll pack more dragon fruit, what else do you want to eat?"

In the past few years, the economic development of Kawashima City has been getting better and better. These steakhouses and barbecue restaurants have entered one after another. After Yao Ge came back, he found that he didn't know some of the roads.

"Do you often eat in Naicheng?" Qiu Ting took the initiative to talk to Yao Ge with her face propped up, and she was a little yearning for Naicheng, "The last time I went on a trip with my parents, the subway is really convenient."

"Then you're definitely not riding during peak hours." Yao Ge had to take the subway to go to school, and often squeezed face to face with others. "If you want to squeeze up, you have to be pushed by the people behind."

"Really?"

Xu Zihang came back with a plate of fruit and popcorn, and Qiu Ting pushed his arm: "Hey, let's go to Naicheng to find Yao Ge to play together. I remember the train I took last time, and I got there soon after I slept."

Xu Zihang was helping Yao Ge with a toothpick inserted into the dragon fruit, and he agreed casually.

"Hello, your steak." Two waiters came over together, "Sirloin."

"She goes first." Yao Ge raised his chin as a signal.

A waiter put it down, lifted the lid on the iron plate, poured the juice, and turned the egg over.Another waiter helped to hold up the tablecloth to cover the spilled oil, and the two said in unison, "Have a nice meal."

The steak sizzled on the iron plate, and the sauce was bubbling.After their things were all put together, Xu Zihang cut a small piece of his own and put it on Yao Ge's plate: "Taste mine, and cut a piece of yours for me."

Qiu Ting said beside him: "I ordered the same as him, you eat mine."

Holding the knife and fork, Yao Ge felt that time was hard with Xu Zihang for the first time, and the feeling of an outsider emerged again.He lowered his eyes: "You can eat her, I won't have enough to eat if I cut it for you."

"Here." Qiu Ting cut a piece and put it on Xu Zihang's plate, and took some macaroni from him, "My pasta is not as delicious as yours."

Yao Ge's knife accidentally cut a piercing sound on the plate, he loosened his fingers, and the palm was scratched.

Xu Zihang moved away, keeping a little distance from Qiu Ting. If he got too close, he could always smell the orange smell in her hair, which made him uncomfortable.Xu Zihang stopped the girl who was still delivering pasta to his bowl: "Don't pick it up, eat your own."

After he finished speaking, he realized that his tone was not good, so he pushed the dessert at Qiu Ting's direction.

After dinner, the two of them were dragged by Qiu Ting to walk around the small jewelry store, and finally waited for her mother to call and urge them to go home. Xu Zihang and Yao Ge both heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts.

"I didn't expect her to come together," Xu Zihang was a little annoyed. He and Yao Ge had only met once in a long time, and now they spent less time together.

"It's okay, I want to see your girlfriend too."

"But we don't have much time to spend together." Xu Zihang put his hands in the pockets of his sports pants, and shook his head irritably, shaking his hair.Suddenly he had an idea, stretched out his hand to grab Yao Ge, "Are you staying at my house tonight?"

"Ah?" Yao Ge was stunned for a moment, "I didn't take any luggage."

"What kind of luggage do you need for a one-night stay? You can definitely wear my clothes." Xu Zihang was a little excited when he thought about it, "Didn't your mother not come this time? Just tell your grandma?"

This proposal is really tempting, not only Xu Zihang, but Yao Ge also regretted the few hours of eating in his heart.Yao Ge pursed his lips, still reluctant to refuse the temptation.

"it is good."

After the two arrived home, Chen Siyi enthusiastically pulled Yao Ge to look left and right, praising him for getting more and more beautiful.

"I remember you were a small one before." Chen Siyi was very impressed with Yao Ge, "The boy has changed so much, I definitely don't know him on the street!"

Yao Ge was still very shy in front of adults, just smiled.Xu Zihang pushed Yao Ge's shoulders, and while taking him into the room, he said to his mother, "I took him to the room, you can watch TV by yourself."

"My mother has prepared new underwear for me." Xu Zihang squatted in front of the wardrobe and looked through it. "You can wear mine in pajamas, don't you think so?"

"Well, it's all right." Yao Ge saw that the poster on the wall had changed again, and the table was still in a mess, so he said casually, "Let me clean up your table for you?"

Xu Zihang turned his head and saw a pile of things on the table that he didn't know where to start. He laughed and said, "You can deal with it." Usually he would never let his mother touch him, and he even made excuses to say that chaos is orderly , "Let me tell you, I am Gone with the Wind."

Yao Ge rolled his eyes with his back turned to him, and quickly started to tidy up his desk.

"You only got 85 points in math?" Yao Ge picked up a messy paper, the red pen on it was very eye-catching, "Oh, it's from the first year of junior high school."

"I just said that it is impossible for me to fail the exam. At that time, there was only a 100-point system." Xu Zihang went in and out of the room, found a new toothbrush and a clean bath towel, and put them on the bed, "I'll give you Put it here, I'll wash it first."

"it is good."

Yao Ge picked out the novels and comics on the table first, and then picked out the textbooks and put them in a stack, basically freeing up space.He dug out a photo from the corner, it was their primary school graduation photo.

Yao Ge picked it up and looked at it. He had impressions of many people's faces, but he couldn't remember the names.Xu Zihang stood in the middle of the last row, hugging Lin Ruiding and smirking, showing a row of white teeth.Peng Dong put his hands on Lin Fengqi, frowning, not knowing what he was doing.

Yao Ge looked over one by one, Shu Xin, Chen Si, Li Zhi, Teacher Zhang...

I feel a little emotional for no reason, I don't know how these people are doing now.Many people are like this, briefly appearing in each other's lives for a few years, and finally become a face that can't be remembered clearly.

When Xu Zihang came out of the bathroom, complaining that it was very hot, he rushed over and turned the electric fan to the maximum: "It's comfortable... I'll sweat all over after taking a shower in summer."

"Be careful of catching a cold if you blow like this." Yao Ge leaned against his desk, flipping through a book in his hand, "I've tidied up your desk, you can find a cloth to wipe it yourself later."

Xu Zihang turned his head and looked over, the pens in the pen container were classified according to pencils, markers, and he didn't even know he had so many pens.The books were piled up in two stacks, and the examination papers and the like were unfolded and flattened. There was also an area where the lyrics, cards, etc. that he usually copied randomly.

He muttered to himself dumbfounded: "It's too powerful..."

And the person who was praised didn't lift his head, with a smile on his face, Xu Zihang walked over to him suspiciously and asked, "Why are you so fascinated by it?"

When he got closer, Yao Ge turned around to avoid him, raised the book, and began to read aloud teasingly: "Kiss her wet crazily..."

"Damn!" Xu Zihang snatched it away, his ears turned red quickly, "This is not mine, Li Chengjin's!"

"Oh." Yao Ge was still laughing, and touched his nose, "Then you didn't watch it?"

"I..." Xu Zihang got stuck, he must have read it, and he had forgotten it 800 years ago, he found a cupboard to hide the book, and retorted weakly, "This is not Is it normal?"

"Well, it's really normal." Yao Ge picked up his clothes and nodded, "It's pretty... well..." Xu Zihang covered his mouth in anger, and couldn't hold back. Laughing again, he broke his hand hard, "Hahahaha, okay, I'm going to take a shower..."

After Yao Ge came out of the shower, Xu Zihang's parents fell asleep, and they both lowered their voices.

"Your bed is so hard." Yao Ge's home is a mattress, and it's the first time he sleeps on this kind of wooden bed.

"My mother said that children sleep on hard beds." Xu Zihang turned off the lights in the room, leaving only the desk lamp.

Yao Ge lay down and found that there were glowing stars pasted on the ceiling of his room: "I didn't expect you to like such cute things."

"My mother made it." Xu Zihang put his hands behind his head, "Is this the first time we two slept together?"

"That's right, I rarely stay at other people's homes." Yao Ge moved his legs, and he could touch Xu Zihang's legs immediately. They were warm, and they lifted half of the quilt to cover their stomachs, "Isn't Lin Ruiding Do you live upstairs? Do you still often play together?"

"Oh, he went back during the holidays. Besides, the school is different now, how can he have time to play every day?" Xu Zihang turned sideways, breathing on Yao Ge's neck.

There was only the whirring sound of the electric fan in the room, and Xu Zihang closed his eyes as he felt drowsy...

"He hungrily pulled down his pants..."

As soon as Xu Zihang closed his eyes, he heard Yao Ge say something slowly. He was stunned for a while, and realized that it was the content in the book just now.

"Okay, you're still laughing at me!" Xu Zihang lowered his voice, and went up to scratch Yao Ge's itch with both hands while talking, "I'll let you say, let you say..."

"Hahahahahahahaha..." Yao Ge blocked him with hands and feet, "You don't...don't you like to watch hahaha...I'll recite it to you hahahaha. ..Okay, okay! Let it go! Let it go!"

Yao Ge's stomach ached from laughing, and his hands and feet were naturally weak. Xu Zihang grabbed his wrists with one hand, and was still tickling him with the other hand: "Should you still talk?"

"Don't say it, don't say it hahahahaha... let it go!" The two big boys were sweating every time they moved in this furnace-like summer, "It's so hot."

"You deserve it!" Xu Zihang's legs were still on his body, and he deliberately pressed against him, "You are so hot. I found that you are now deflated."

"Let's go, let's go," Yao Ge finally had enough of laughing, and there would be something wrong if he kept rubbing like this, he closed his eyes pretending to be serious, "Sleep. I'm sleepy."

Xu Zihang snorted before letting him go.

The two finally lay quietly for a while, Xu Zihang turned left and right, pondered for a moment, and finally asked himself a topic that he had been afraid to ask today: "Well, your father, he... well, don't you Angry?"

Xu Zihang remembered that Yao Ge said before that his father promised him not to have other children.

Hearing his question, Yao Ge still closed his eyes and smiled slightly: "You suddenly changed the subject..." Then he turned his back to Xu Zihang, his voice became a little distant, "I'm not angry So what if you are angry. My dad, he has his own life to live. Go to bed, good night."

Xu Zihang looked at the person with his back to him, said "oh", then raised his hand to rub Yao Ge's hair.

Hearing that the breathing of the people behind became longer, Yao Ge turned around and quietly looked at the people in front of him through the light of the moon.

He didn't take any action, he just remembered his appearance inch by inch with his gaze, and stored it for the days when they couldn't meet each other.

Xu Zihang.I hope you will always be so happy, always be liked by others, and never feel that you can't get what you ask for.
