Dig a spoonful of heart meat

Seeing Zou Shao's expression, Zou Ze probably guessed who was calling, said "I'm going out to buy some food", turned around and walked out of the ward.

The phone-phone-ring-tone still rang unremittingly, repeated several times, and even the words on the screen looked a little dazzling.

The two have not been in touch for a week.

After living together, this is the first time.

Zou Shao leaned back on the bed, closed his eyes, and pressed the answer button.

"Zou Shao?" The voice came from the other end of the phone, with obvious impatience and anxiety, and the breath was rough, but suppressed.

Qin Weifeng was always too accommodating to him.

It hurts people.

"I'm here." Zou Shao opened his mouth softly, his words were distinctly hoarse and grainy, as if he was ill.

The other party was obviously relieved, "I haven't contacted you this week, and then I asked the physical education teacher. He said that you are not feeling well and asked for leave."

Zou Shao held the phone and didn't answer.

"Are you... are you okay?" The voice on the other end of the phone sounded cautious, "If there's anything you need to tell me, how are you doing now? I'll go and see you."

Zou Shao lowered his head and saw the red thread on his hand.

That was when they were not together.

He helped people put the red string on at the dinner table, saying, "The person who wears this gets full marks in the college entrance examination."

What did Qin Weifeng reply at that time?

"Then how many full marks do you plan to take?"

"I plan to get full marks until I take the exam with you."

Probably at least from that time on, Tan Weifeng's relationship with him was no longer an ordinary relationship between friends.

Almost four months have passed.

The color of the red thread is not as pure as it was then, but they both know that they are still wearing each other.

"You're pretty tired these days." Zou Shao said.

"...It's okay. You'll be busy just after school starts. What's the matter?"

"Yeah." Zou Shao clamped the phone between his ears and neck, and fiddled with the red line on his wrist with his other hand to look at it repeatedly.

Bracelets made of this material can't be worn for a long time, and the thread ends will be unscrewed quickly, and the beautiful knots are easy to loosen.Start at the edge and slowly fluff and then fall off.

"I'm fine. I got a little injury. I'll be back in a few days. You're busy with your business, so don't come to see me." Zou Shao said, "But I may not be able to go with you to the dance after a while. gone."

Zou Shao paused for a moment, but there was no response from the microphone.

"The provincial competition and the mid-term exam have collided, so it can't be arranged. Or you can... find someone else to go with you."

Zou Shao's hands were clenched into fists tightly above the quilt, and then slowly opened, looking at the red marks on the palms that were severely carved by nails.

What are you talking about?

He heard himself say, "Sorry."

When Tan Weifeng called, he had just finished his last class on Friday evening and was shopping for daily necessities at Supermarket C.I couldn't get in touch with Zou Shao, so I called the physical education teacher.

The other party's answer was: I injured my ankle and asked for a three-month leave. The situation is very pessimistic.

But Zou Shao gave him the answer: It's nothing serious, don't come to see me.

Don't you need to see it?

It's not that I don't need it, but that I don't want to.

Zou Shao's personality traits of reporting good news but not worrying are too obvious. If he hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, he probably wouldn't even know about the situation in Zou Shao's family.

Since you dare to say that you like the word, why don't you dare to face the things that you will inevitably experience after being together? Why do you still choose to prevaricate when things are difficult to solve after repeated promises?

Zou Shao asked him if he was very tired recently - he was indeed very tired.

But it wasn't because they couldn't see each other, or because they encountered difficulties, or even because Zou Shao ignored him for a week—after all, neither of them was the type who was too clingy in love and couldn't leave each other.

He can accept that two people have their own lives and goals, and they are busy in their own way, but he cannot accept that they do intimate things under the cover of love, but they still habitually hide their burdens and concerns from each other.

"Sorry." He heard Zou Shao say another sentence in the microphone, but it disappeared in the noisy voice of the supermarket in an instant.

He had been standing in front of the self-service payment machine for half a minute, and he didn't even hear the voice of his classmates urging him.

What do you mean by "I'm too busy to go, you can go with someone else"?

What is "sorry"?

After hanging him out for a week, is this the answer?

No one will stand still and wait, waiting for the other party to think clearly about the cause and effect, and then rush forward regardless of the consequences.

Zou Shao heard the background sound on the phone gradually turn from noisy to quiet, probably because Qin Weifeng walked into the corridor from the supermarket.

"What did you just say?" Tan Weifeng's tone contained anger, but was still slightly suppressed because of his habitual restraint.

"I said... sorry."

Sorry is naturally the worst possible solution.

This is nothing more than a sentence issued when there is no way out, but if there is a slight possibility of turning around, there is no need to use apology to hurt others.

Not to mention the closest lovers.

But what else could he say?

He said something happened at home, and his mental state was extremely bad; he said that it would cost a lot of money to be hospitalized; he said that he could not go to the same university with you, and the level may be much different; he did not even go to school or work in the same city.

After all, life is not like a movie. Not everyone can reach the pinnacle of life through "motivation of love"; nor can everyone quickly come out of a huge spiritual blow and turn sadness into motivation.

He can be ordinary, but he can't let his life be a mess and drag outstanding people into the water.

These words were condensed into two words, nothing more than "sorry".

The microphone was extremely quiet, not even the sound of breathing.

Zou Shao subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull the end of the red rope, but the weaving pattern of the whole red thread collapsed in an instant.

He raised his hand to brush the hair on his forehead, but stopped suddenly when his fingertips touched a trace of coolness.

I was taken aback.

"Zou Shao." The voice on the other side of the microphone was extremely serious, like the voice of a high-minded and indifferent student council president and a student god.

It's just that the other party hasn't talked to him in this tone for so long that he has long since forgotten it.

The other party continued, "You are not feeling well now, and you are in a bad mood. I can understand whatever you say."

"But I hope that after you calm down, think about what you said today, and then take the initiative to apologize to me and give me a reason that I can accept instead of prevarication."

After saying this, the phone was hung up.

Zou Shao held the microphone, and it took him a while to recover.

He made his Fengshen angry.

It is obviously the person who once vowed to catch up with him, the person who promised to move forward together.

Now the other party accepts it, but he is avoiding it again.

The past is so vulnerable in the face of reality.

Zou Shao watched the system's default desktop gradually darken, and finally turned black, reflecting his face with heavy dark circles under his eyes.

The double blow from his relatives and himself almost made him sleepless for several days.

too tired.

He threw the phone aside and turned it off.

I don't know why it's suddenly so slow
