SAYE

Jiang Cheng's hands are quite strong, especially in this state of being burned out of control by the wine and the atmosphere, the joints of Gu Fei's palms are a little painful because they are squeezed together, and the mint in his palm is hard. Sugar is also crumbling like a small stone.

Gu Fei looked at Yi Jing from the corner of his eye. Yi Jing was being dragged by Wang Xu to talk. While everyone in the room was eating, drinking and chatting in full swing, no one noticed that Jiang Cheng was about to crush his hands. .

"What's wrong?" Gu Fei asked in a low voice.

Jiang Cheng didn't say anything, he just leaned against the wall and looked at him, still clutching his hands tightly.

Gu Fei stared at him for a while, then turned away, staring at the table of dishes in a daze.

He is not left-handed, he needs to eat with his right hand, and now Jiang Cheng has no intention of letting go, he can only silently look at the food on the table.

In fact, he could feel that Jiang Cheng was a little out of control at the beginning, but he had recovered within three to five seconds at the most.

Right now, he is holding on so tightly, he feels embarrassed, he is at a loss, and he also has the thought of not wanting to let go suddenly and look deliberate. For a person like Jiang Cheng who is so thoughtful and sensitive, when faced with the current situation, there are those gullies in his mind. Gullies are probably about to be flattened.

Gu Fei picked up the soup bowl with his left hand and took a sip. This is the lamb tripe soup that Wang Xu specially ordered, and it tastes pretty good.

"This soup is not bad." Gu Fei turned his head and said to Jiang Cheng.

"Ah." Jiang Cheng responded, and loosened his hands a little.

"Try it?" Gu Fei said, and lightly tapped the back of Jiang Cheng's hand with his thumb.

"Half tripe?" Jiang Cheng asked, the hand that was holding him finally let go.

"Yes." Gu Fei withdrew his hand, hesitated for a moment, and pressed the mint candy still in his hand into Jiang Cheng's palm again.

"I actually don't like mutton tripe soup," Jiang Cheng whispered, this time he didn't pinch his hand again, took his candy, lowered his head and peeled it slowly under the table, "I like mutton soup, mutton bone soup , bone soup, pork belly soup..."

"Tell me that I'm hungry." Gu Fei picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of lamb belly and put it in his mouth.

"Me too." Jiang Cheng threw the candy into his mouth, and after sucking it for two seconds, he turned his head abruptly, "Isn't this the fucking candy that has changed flavor?"

"No, do you like that one? That's the tricky candy that Liu Fan's friend brought back from Japan, and I still have a whole pack." Gu Fei said with a smile.

"Give me some, just two or three." Jiang Cheng nodded, this candy was very in line with his style when he was with that mentally handicapped Pan Zhi.

"I'll give it to you on Monday," Gu Fei said, "Hey, I'm going to study on Monday."

"...It's finished." Jiang Cheng sighed.

A large group of people eat together, especially this kind of half-sized children. Generally, everyone will be full within 20 minutes, because they are rushing to eat, as if they have not seen meat in the cabbage garden for ten or eight years. .

When you are full, start to drink slowly and brag.

Jiang Cheng didn't join the chat, but just listened.

In the past, the reunion process with classmates was similar, and there was also a part of bragging, but the bragging was far inferior to the group of Class 8 in front of him. Jiang Cheng always wanted to listen to it, but the girls were quite devoted and gave them face.

"Jiang Cheng!" Wang Xu didn't know when he finished boasting about his awesomeness, and suddenly stood up and stretched out the cup in Jiang Cheng's hand, "Come with me!"

"Huh?" Jiang Cheng was taken aback.

"I toast to you," Wang Xu drank a lot, and now his face was flushed, "To our secret weapon!"

"It's not a secret for a long time..." Jiang Cheng looked at Wang Xu's expression of "If you don't drink, I promise to drink you", and stood up holding his own cup, "They are all in the same team, so let's not make things like this Is it grand?"

"You're not as good at playing basketball as you are drinking!" Wang Xu pointed at him.

Jiang Cheng was speechless, took the cup and knocked it on his cup, then raised his head and drank the wine.

"Refreshing!" Wang Xu roared happily, and drank the wine in one gulp, "I love you!"

"...No need to love." Jiang Cheng sat down helplessly.

"I still want to love you!" Wang Xu flicked his cup smartly, "In the future, Brother Xu will cover up..."

"Sit down." Gu Fei pushed away Wang Xu's arm that was still on his head, and wiped off the scum that he had thrown all over his face.

"Da Fei!" Wang Xu seemed to have discovered a new continent, and shouted while pouring wine into his glass, "We two..."

Gu Fei didn't wait for him to speak, and he didn't wait for him to finish his drink. He got up and picked up his own glass, drank it down, and then grabbed his arm: "Sit down and eat some food."

"Oh!" Wang Xu looked at him with excited confusion.

"Don't let him drink anymore." Gu Fei turned his head and glanced at Yi Jing who had been leaning back and trying to avoid it, "How can I get it back after a while."

Yi Jing smiled helplessly: "He doesn't listen to me either."

"He listens." Gu Fei said.

"Listen!" Wang Xu nodded immediately, "I listen!"

Gu Fei ignored him and squeezed away from Jiang Cheng.

"Why go?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Wash your face," Gu Fei said, "By the way, get some fruit for Er Miao to eat."

"Well," Jiang Cheng glanced at Gu Miao who had already fallen asleep on the chair next to him, "I've been asleep for a long time..."

"I'm going to bed by then." Gu Fei put on his coat and squeezed out from behind a group of people with great difficulty.

The house continued to be noisy, laughing and shouting for food, the wine bottles were almost empty, and Yi Jing suppressed them to ask for more wine.

Jiang Cheng was still leaning against the wall in his old posture, crossing his arms and looking at this group of blushing and smiling people. The atmosphere hadn't changed, but he suddenly felt a little cold when he saw the back of Gu Fei opening the box door and going out.

It was probably because they had been squeezing together with Gu Fei before, their arms were touching, their legs were touching... oh, and they even grabbed hands.

He felt that his state today was miraculous. Thinking of the scene when he grabbed Gu Fei's hand just now, he didn't fall down in embarrassment, and even felt a little inexplicably triumphant.

What the hell?I don't know, the young man's thinking is so mysterious, and he is so shameless all of a sudden!

It's probably because of the bar. It's not that he can't drink, it's just that he can't adapt to this kind of drinking like Zha Mengzi.

Every time after drinking like this suddenly, he would have a pleasant feeling of stepping on the clouds and taking the wrong medicine. Last time he drank a sip of wine with his relatives, but this time he held on to the hands again, as if he was playing hooligans by drinking.

But this time, his shock and embarrassment at his behavior didn't last long. For example, when he thinks about it now... he just wants to laugh.

It's terrible, people's skin can be thickened so easily.

Gu Fei went out for a long time and didn't return to the private room. Jiang Cheng had to stand up. He was going to the toilet. He wanted to go just now, but when Gu Fei went to wash his face, he followed him to pee. It didn't feel that good. suitable.

Now he couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and squeezed out of the box.

"Jiang Cheng!" As soon as he squeezed to the door, Guo Xu shouted in his ear, "Where are you going!"

Jiang Cheng was a little dizzy at first, but he was startled by his voice again, and almost slammed his head against the door. He turned his head and saw Guo Yang's nose was red, and his eyes were shining with excitement.

"Go to the bathroom." He patted Guo Xu's arm, opened the door and walked out.

"Hurry up! We haven't had a drink yet!" Guo Xu opened the door and poked his head out to shout.

"Ah." Jiang Cheng waved his hand.

It seems that these "northern people" can only drink like that, they are all drunk, they are out of wine, and they are still drinking.

I didn't meet Gu Fei in the toilet, so I guess he went to fetch fruit for Gu Miao.

When Jiang Cheng was washing his hands after going to the bathroom, his cell phone rang. He took it out and looked at it, and was a little surprised to see that it was Shen Yiqing's number.

He stared at the number for a long time, and finally picked up the answer.

"Xiao Cheng?" Shen Yiqing's voice came from over there.

Although he resisted a little and felt that it had faded a lot after such a long time, when he heard this voice, Jiang Cheng still felt that the familiar feeling brought to him by this voice that was always full of seriousness and calm restraint probably lasted a lifetime. It can't be erased.

"Ah." He responded.

"Are you at home?" Shen Yiqing asked.

"No." Jiang Cheng turned off the faucet, took out a cigarette and lit it while walking outside, and stood by the window in the corridor, "Dining outside."

"Are you smoking?" Shen Yiqing asked again.

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng leaned against the wall, looked outside, and suddenly felt very happy.

Shen Yiqing didn't speak, and after a while he said in a cold voice: "You can still maintain yourself wherever you go."

"Well, it's not that I want to keep it, that's the kind of person I am, isn't it?" Jiang Cheng frowned, "Did you just call to ask this?"

"Li Baoguo called me and said he wanted some money," Shen Yiqing said, "tuition and food expenses..."

"He called you?" Jiang Cheng was stunned.

He never thought that Li Baohui would call Shen Yiqing to ask for money, the sudden and unexpected strong sense of shame that covered him made him almost out of breath.

"I think these expenses should be paid by parents, so I didn't agree," Shen Yiqing said, "Is there still money on the card I gave you?"

"Yes." Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth.

"The money is for you. Although we are no longer a family, we still have feelings," Shen Yiqing said, "I hope you will take the money well."

"Understood." Jiang Cheng took a drag on his cigarette.

"I just wanted to talk about this, so I hung up." Shen Yiqing said.

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng closed his eyes, the smoke that rushed up made his eyes ache.

"I still want to say one more thing," Shen Yiqing said suddenly, "I hope you can see your own problems clearly in the new environment, and don't always feel that your rebellious period has not passed. Grades don't mean anything. Personality and temper are the decisions. What is the road under your feet..."

"Don't fucking teach me," Jiang Cheng opened his eyes, hoarse, "I've heard enough, the facts have proved that your lessons are useless for people like me! I'm not twins! I'm not on the same channel as you It’s always been like this! I listen to what you say is training! You listen to what I say is a thorn! Now I’m home! It’s not over yet!”

The last sentence Jiang Cheng roared out.

After yelling, he hung up the phone, stared at the wall for a long time, put the phone back in his pocket, turned around and leaned against the wall with his head closed, raised his head and took a few deep breaths before he recovered, and opened his mouth. Eye.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Fei standing two steps away from him holding a large fruit plate.

He stared at Gu Fei, not knowing what to say.

"Eat?" Gu Fei handed over the fruit plate, "I just asked the waiter to cut it."

Jiang Cheng took a slice of watermelon: "It's out-of-season fruit to eat the brain damage."

"Then you eat?" Gu Fei put the fruit plate on a small table next to it, and also took a piece of watermelon.

"I'm so smart," Jiang Cheng said, "Eat a few slices to stay close to the average line, and strive to be on par with my own father, Li Baoguo."

"Li Baoguo is not very stupid, he is pretty good at card counting." Gu Fei smiled.

"It's pretty powerful to ask for money." After Jiang Cheng said this sentence, he was immediately blocked again, feeling that all the yelling at Shen Yiqing just now was because of Li Baoguo asking for money. ,"Hold."

"You eat watermelon with the skin on?" Gu Fei looked at him in surprise.

"Shut up!" Jiang Cheng spat out the chewed watermelon rind into the trash can next to him, "That's how we city people eat."

"Understood." Gu Fei laughed while eating.

Jiang Cheng was a little bored at the moment. He felt that his emotions were indeed not very stable, and he was quite easily affected. The good mood he had saved up from a pleasant and relaxing evening was wiped out by just this one phone call. .

He doesn't even want to go back to the box now. The people in the room that made him happy may now become the source of his irritability.

Gu Fei didn't say much, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry to go back to the box, the two of them just leaned against the table in the corridor and ate the fruit plate.

Watermelons, oranges, tomatoes... Anyway, I ate a lot of meat, and now I just have some fruit to relieve my tiredness.

It wasn't until the plate of fruit was dried up that he raised his head and met Gu Fei.

"We ate up Queen Miaomiao's fruit." Jiang Cheng wiped his mouth.

"Well, I'll cut a plate for her later." Gu Fei said.

"Did you hear some great secret again just now?" Jiang Cheng looked at him, his body that was a little hot from the wine and the heater was slowly neutralized by the cold fruit.

"It's not a big secret," Gu Fei said, "I already knew about your being retired...was it you...the adoptive mother?"

"Yes," Jiang Cheng nodded, scratching the empty fruit plate with his fingers, slowly marking the notes with the water left on the bottom of the plate, "Li Baoguo asked her for money."

Gu Fei raised his eyebrows in surprise, but didn't speak.

"Gu Fei," Jiang Cheng scribbled out the drawn notes again, "Have you ever been particularly upset, how did you solve it? It doesn't seem like an act to live a life of calm all day long. "

"Drink some wine and sleep." Gu Fei said.

"Really." Jiang Cheng frowned, "Does it work?"

"It doesn't work." Gu Fei said.

"Playing with me?" Jiang Cheng looked at him.

"Is there any solution, if you get used to it, you'll be fine," Gu Fei said, "There are so many things, you can't bother with them one by one."

The two of them were still standing in the corridor without moving, they stared at the empty fruit plate together in a daze.

After a while, Jiang Cheng heard the sound of a skateboard.

"Huh?" Gu Fei turned his head.

"Gu Miao?" Jiang Cheng raised his eyes and saw Gu Miao slid over from the box holding his and Gu Fei's clothes and schoolbags.

"Hey! Miaomiao, slow down, your brother..." Wang Xu hurriedly followed behind with his coat in his hands, and he was relieved when he saw Gu Fei and Jiang Cheng standing in the corridor, "Damn it! I thought you two eloped! Let's go!"

"Scattered?" Gu Fei asked.

"What are you going to do?" Wang Xu said while putting on his clothes, "Change the place! Go sing!"

"I'm not going." Jiang Cheng whispered quickly.

Gu Fei glanced at him, then turned his head and nodded at Wang Xu: "Okay, let's go."

Everyone in the house came out, and there was a lot of noise.

After leaving the restaurant, everyone immediately walked across the street. Seeing Wang Xu's familiarity, it is estimated that he also picked this place.

Jiang Cheng walked last, and after everyone passed by, he saw Gu Fei and Gu Miao still standing by the side of the road.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Don't tell me you can't go?" Gu Fei said.

"...I mean, I'm not going," Jiang Cheng was taken aback for a while, "If you want to go, go, you don't need to accompany me."

"I'm not going, I'm going to get Er Miao back to sleep," Gu Fei scratched Gu Miao's head, "If you weren't here today, I wouldn't come over for dinner."

"Why?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"It's boring," Gu Fei stretched his waist after finishing speaking, and pushed his bicycle to the side of a taxi next to him, "Let's go, Brother Cheng."

Gu Miao was already sleepy, Gu Fei didn't let her continue to slide back, stuffed the bicycle in the trunk, and took a taxi.

"You in a while..." Jiang Cheng hesitated for a long time, and he didn't say until he saw the sign at the intersection, "Do you want to go home directly?"

"Where do you want to go?" Gu Fei asked.

"I don't know," Jiang Cheng rubbed his forehead, "I just don't want to go back to Li Baoguo."

"En." Gu Fei responded.

The car stopped in front of Gu Fei's shop, and the shop was still lit. When Jiang Cheng got out of the car, he saw Gu Fei's mother inside. It was the first time in a long time that he saw her still open after nine o'clock. Stay in the store.

"Wait for me." Gu Fei said.

"Oh." Jiang Cheng watched as he brought Gu Miao into the store, handed it to his mother, then walked around the shelves a few times, and when he came out, he carried a large plastic bag, which contained a lot of things.

"What?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Eat, peanuts and beef jerky." Gu Fei replied, turned and walked forward.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Cheng walked up and stood side by side with him.

"Steel Factory," Gu Fei looked at him, "Don't you want to go back?"

Jiang Cheng didn't speak, but gave him a thumbs up.

The hut in the steel factory seemed to have been visited by someone in the past two days, and it was cleaned up quite cleanly, even the cloth covering the sofa with the broken leg was changed.

"Li Yan is really virtuous." Gu Fei put the things on the table and skillfully started to light a fire in the middle stove, "He basically cleans up the things in this room."

"You don't look virtuous at all." Jiang Cheng fell down on the sofa, heaved a long sigh of relief, and inexplicably felt a lot more relaxed in his body, "What did you get to eat? Let me see."

Gu Fei put the bag beside him.

In addition to all kinds of peanuts, all kinds of beef jerky, there are also piles of chicken fillet, even ham sausage and instant noodles, filled a bag full, Jiang Cheng laughed: "This configuration is enough to drink until tomorrow It's morning."

"Can you still drink?" Gu Fei turned his head.

"Don't have any prejudice against us southerners." Jiang Cheng took a bag of peanuts, opened it, squeezed a piece, and chewed slowly, "We southerners just drink slowly, fashionable people like me People in southern cities drink more slowly..."

Gu Fei laughed: "Let me see if there is any wine left."

"If you don't have one, go back to the store and get it." Jiang Cheng touched a cigarette and lit it.

"Yes, boss," Gu Fei picked up a few cardboard boxes by the wall and rummaged through them, and took out two bottles of liquor, "Red Star Erguotou, these people have changed their tastes recently."

"It's Erguotou anyway, native." Jiang Cheng stretched his legs with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Do I still have to pour it for you?" Gu Fei looked at him.

"Yeah," Jiang Cheng said, "I don't want to move, I'm not in the mood."

"Remember this moment, Brother Cheng," Gu Fei kicked the small table to his legs, poured the wine and put it in front of him, then took a few disposable dinner plates, unpacked some of the snacks in the bag and put them on top of each other. Put it on the table, "Except for Er Miao, I have never served anyone like this before."

"Isn't the service very thoughtful when I came back to barbecue last time?" Jiang Cheng smiled.

"Then remember it from last time." Gu Fei sat next to him.

"Oh," Jiang Cheng picked up the cup and took a sip, "Really?"

"Really." Gu Fei took a piece of beef jerky and slowly tore it up.

"It's too unbelievable. Have you never had a girl...boyfriend...boyfriend or girlfriend?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"No." Gu Fei said.

"...Oh." Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at him.

In my heart, I mourned for three seconds to the chat that couldn't go on because I suddenly raised such a question that was inherently embarrassing.
