Chapter 14 14. Doubt

After this night, Xu Jianian completely ignored Sheng Xunshu.

No matter at home, in class, when eating together, or when they should be doing homework together or watching TV together, Xu Jianian ignored Sheng Xunshu and treated Sheng Xunshu as if he didn't exist at all.

Sheng Xunshu was actually a bit regretful, but this regret quickly turned into annoyance amid Xu Jianian's indifference.He also stopped paying attention to Xu Jianian, except for being on time for meals and going to school, he spent the rest of his time having fun.He is cheerful by nature, as long as he wants to make friends, he will be lively wherever he goes.

In contrast, Xu Jianian, because of his excellent grades and special interests, was alone in and out of school, appearing deserted.

But such a change could not change Xu Jianian's firm determination at all.

If you say you don’t want to play with Sheng Xunshu, you don’t want to play with Sheng Xunshu. Whether he talks to me or doesn’t talk to me, plays with others, or doesn’t play with others, I won’t be with him anymore. played!

The two children became strangers in the blink of an eye. Xu's mother, who thought that the children's quarrel made them quarrel, couldn't sit still. She was just looking for an opportunity to match the two. When the weekend came, Sheng's father and mother next door came. When I came back with me, the first time I came back, I went straight to the Internet cafe, took the crazy kid home, took out the feather duster, and hit!

Depend on!

Lean, lean, lean! ! ! ! !

Sheng Xunshu jumped up and down, crying and howling: "Why do you hit me!"

Father Sheng said angrily: "Just because I am your father! I work hard outside to earn a good life for you, should you study or not, and go to an Internet cafe to hang out with the little hooligans outside to repay me?!"

Sheng Xun was so bookish: "Did Xu Jianian sue you! My friend is not a hooligan!"

Father Sheng was impatient: "The kids who play truant every day to go to Internet cafes and are dismissed by teachers at school are not hooligans, what are they? If you hang out with them every day, you are also preparing for a hooligan!"

After finishing speaking, the feather duster flew again. If Sheng Xunshu's hands and feet were not flexible, he would have been hit by this mighty duster several times!

That's it, Dad Sheng didn't think it was enough, and shouted at Sheng Xunshu: "Stop! You not only delay your studies and go to Internet cafes, but you have also learned to deceive people! Bad exams are a matter of ability, and deceiving people is a matter of character The problem, if I hadn’t called your head teacher to ask you, I would have been fooled by you! Steal needles when you are young, and steal gold when you are older, I think you are not satisfied with being a little hooligan, you still want to be a little criminal—— "

Sheng Xunshu, who was running and jumping around the sofa, stopped.

Father Sheng didn't stop, and the feather duster hit Sheng Xunshu's neck, leaving a red mark on it.

The corner of Sheng Ma's eyes twitched, she stood up quickly and said, "Oh, that's wrong, are you okay? Does it hurt?"

Father Sheng was also taken aback, but soon he put his hands on his hips and said, "You know you're wrong? Stand up for me, you're going to beat you up today!"

Just as the family war was about to start, the knock on the door suddenly sounded.

The three of them looked at the closed door together.

Xu Jianian stood outside the door.

Without squinting, he passed directly beside Sheng Xunshu, put a plate of steamed pork belly with bamboo shoots in his hand on the dining table, and said to Sheng's father and mother, "Uncle and aunt, this is the dish my mother asked me to bring over."

Sheng Ma said: "Your mother is too polite, thank her for me."

Xu Jianian: "Uncle and aunt, I'm going back first."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked past Sheng Xunshu without looking sideways again, walking towards his home.

Sheng Xunshu seized the opportunity like Xu Jianian's little tail, and slipped out with no fumes, catching up with Xu Jianian before Xu Jianian entered the door!

Xu Jianian held the door handle still and looked at Sheng Xunshu coldly.

He asked: "What's the matter?"

Sheng Xunshu scratched his face: "I... I'm sorry, I misunderstood you, so it wasn't you who told my dad that I didn't do well in the exam."

Xu Jianian: "Yes."

After one syllable, the two were speechless again.

Sheng Xunshu felt that this direction was not in line with his imagination... He thought for a while, and then said: "I apologize, let's make up again?"

Xu Jianian said: "I don't think our problem is this."

Sheng Xunshu: "?"

Xu Jianian: "Our preferences are different. You don't like what I like, and I don't like what you like. There is no way for us to play together for a long time."

Sheng Xunshu understood what Xu Jianian meant.

He lowered his head, then raised his head, wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Finally, without saying anything, he turned and left.

Xu Jianian closed the door after Sheng Xunshu left.He moved out the pet cage from a corner that Sheng Xunshu couldn't see, and the hedgehog was hiding in it.He took out the hedgehog inside and put it in his palm, propped his chin with his fist, and watched the hedgehog crawl slowly on his palm.

The sun illuminated his forehead and the bridge of his nose, and brushed the ends of his hair.

What Xu Jianian said today was what he had been thinking about for several days.

He felt that this was the conclusion of the conflict between himself and Sheng Xunshu. He had said everything, and this should have been the end of a matter.But the end didn't bring him ease and happiness, instead, there was depression all over his body from nowhere, making him feel powerless.

The flow of time is not disturbed by anyone's mood.

After that short conversation, Xu Jianian no longer had a cold war with Sheng Xunshu. He waved his hands when they met each other, and said a few words while sitting at the same table for dinner. Occasionally Sheng Xunshu would come to ask two questions, Tell Sheng Xunshu the solutions to the two problems. Once again, Sheng Xunshu forgot to bring his abacus, and Xu Jianian lent Sheng Xunshu his extra abacus.

No one said anything more, they were just classmates they knew.

Inadvertently, time flies, the first semester of the first year of junior high school has passed, the winter vacation is here, the winter vacation is gone, the second semester of junior high school is here, and the second semester of junior high school is about to end——

In the past six months, Xu Jianian ranked first in the grade rankings in every exam, and good news came from time to time when he participated in the competitions in the city and the province. A little saga of Duan.

Sheng Xunshu's parents didn't know how to discuss it. Anyway, they fell to the ground in two shifts at home to accompany Sheng Xunshu, watching Sheng Xunshu closely, and forbidding him to play casually.With such companionship, Sheng Xunshu's grades have gradually improved, from the bottom of the class to the 35th in the class. Although it is still in the middle and lower positions, compared with the beginning, there have been obvious changes .

Another year's June 6th is my birthday.

Xu Jianian had been waiting for this day for a long time.

He caught a cold in a planned way. He asked the school teacher for leave one day, and then sent his parents to work at nine o'clock in the morning. No, I don't know if it landed in Sheng Xunshu's room."

Mother Sheng didn't think much, and let Xu Jianian come in directly: "You search in the wrong room yourself, and I don't know where he put his things. Is the condition serious?"

Xu Jianian said: "It's okay, it's just a small cold."

While speaking, he had already gone up to the second floor, took a deep breath towards Sheng Xunshu's half-hidden door, pushed it open suddenly, and crashed into another world!

The secret hidden in the memory reappeared before the eyes.

The eldest brother was still sitting on the chair in the room, wearing the same clothes and dressing up the same way.

When he entered, the other party was burying his face between his hands, and seemed a little tired.

But when he heard the sound of the door, the other party raised his face in an instant, and when he saw himself, the brilliance in his eyes was even inferior to the sun.

Then, Xu Jianian heard the other party's relieved voice: "You're here? I'm afraid you have class today and won't come."

If it wasn't for the quarrel between him and Sheng Xunshu, he really wouldn't have come here.

Xu Jianian thought unhappily.At the same time, he was puzzled: big brother...does the future Sheng Xunshu really look forward to my coming?

He temporarily ignored the other party, rushed to the bookcase, took the photo frame from the cabinet, and looked at the photo.

In the photo, the grown-up me and the grown-up Sheng Xunshu are shoulder to shoulder.

He put down the photo frame, rushed to the desk computer again, and looked at the computer screen.

On the screen, the grown-up me and the grown-up Sheng Xunshu intertwined.

But it shouldn't be!

How did Sheng Xunshu and I reconcile?Why are we together again!

Xu Jianian stared firmly at the computer screen, and did not look away for a long time.It's been so long that Xu Jianian suddenly rushed over and forced his back to lean back, so he had to support Xu Jianian's Sheng Xunshu with one hand on the table and the other: "You are now in the first grade of junior high school, did we quarrel?"

Xu Jianian then glanced at his elder brother with a complicated expression on his face.

Sheng Xunshu was also looking at Xu Jianian.He found that Xu Jianian's expression at this time was very strange, mixed with frustration, powerlessness, bewilderment, disbelief, rejection, disgust... mixed together, it was indescribably complicated.

Of course he remembered the quarrel between the two when they were in junior high school.

He also knew the final result of this quarrel.

He just didn't know, didn't expect that at this time of the year, besides lying in bed and gritting his teeth and scolding Xu Jianian a hundred times, Xu Jianian also had a quarrel with him, and he was very concerned about it.

The sun is floating outside the window, dotted in the air.

Sheng Xunshu took a breath and broke the silence in the room: "Xu Jianian, I was wrong."

Xu Jianian expressionless: "You are not wrong."

Sheng Xunshu: "Xu Jianian..."

Xu Jianian's voice was faster than Sheng Xunshu's. He was very unhappy about the foreseeable future, but his reason was still there, and he could clearly distinguish the difference between the two: "That's between me and you in the past, not with you now. things."

This time, I was speechless in exchange for Sheng Xunshu.

But it is undeniable that this kind of Xu Jianian is the Xu Jianian he has known for many years. Even though he is still young, he still has clear thinking and firm will.

He spoke in a low voice with a soft voice: "Do you want to know when we reconciled?"

Xu Jianian remained expressionless: "I don't want to know either."

At this point, Xu Jianian raised his hand, put the photo frame away, and said stubbornly: "Anyway, we are reconciled, aren't we? I don't want to know when and how we reconciled. I will go through it myself. If the wrong one convinces me, I will reconcile with him, if wrong wrong does not convince me, I will not reconcile with him no matter what!" He looked around, "Brother, you don't have to beat the side drum, this is me and you in the past matter!"

The more familiar, the more relaxed, the more looking forward to, the more complete.

From the very beginning to now, the exhaustion has washed away, the urgency has disappeared, and of course the heaviness has also flown away.Sheng Xunshu looked at the little Xu Jianian, and felt that joy had come, making him radiant.He laughed out loud: "I'm not playing the rim drum. I really realized my mistake. It started very early—a little more time than you have now."

I don't believe it!

Xu Jianian glanced at the other party, and continued to remain silent.

Sheng Xunshu said again: "You sit down first, I'll get you a glass of water, no—" He suddenly said, "Now, do you still drink orange juice?"

Really right.

Xu Jianian glanced at his elder brother and said deliberately, "No, I want water."

The owner of the house left for a while, Xu Jianian was still uneasy, staring at the photo frame on the bookshelf, but at this moment, a small notebook next to the photo frame caught his attention.

To be more precise, it was a photo with his head exposed in the small notebook that caught his attention.

How does he look, how does he feel a bit like... himself?

Xu Jianian picked up the notebook suspiciously, and there was a hardcover book under the notebook, which said "Modern Famous Photographer Sheng Xunshu Solo Exhibition Album".

Huh?

The book hidden under the notebook also aroused Xu Jianian's interest. Just as Xu Jianian was about to reach out his hand, Sheng Xunshu's voice came from behind: "Your water is here."

Xu Jianian looked back, and Sheng Xunshu appeared at the door with orange juice in his hand.

The photo in the small notebook slipped from Xu Jianian's hands, he looked down and found that it was really his own photo.

In the outdoor swimming pool, his upper body emerged from the water, sparkling on his bare skin, the water splashed and splashed in all directions, blurring the lens together with the sun's halo, brilliant and bright.

What a beautiful shot!

But it was too late for Xu Jianian to praise Sheng Xunshu.

The 15-minute countdown was over, and he felt a ripple-like change around him...

In the blink of an eye, the person in front of him has disappeared, and there is no time to say the last sentence.

Sheng Xun was stunned after posting the book, and picked up the photo that fell on the ground. The shutter flashed when he was ignorant in high school, and inadvertently put the secret feelings in his heart on the screen...

Sheng Xunshu rubbed the photo, smiled for a while, and the corners of his raised lips fell again.

Xu Jianian, Xu Jianian, I actually saw you in the past.But what are you doing now?

Xu Jianian, after parting from you, I feel very sad.

……And you?

I miss you too.

……And you?
