Chapter 24 Phototaxis

"Brother Lian, don't rush away!"

Just as Xie Lian stood up with his schoolbag on his back, a force climbed onto his shoulders and forced him back on the seat abruptly.

The boy flicked his bangs twice, stepped on the horizontal bar on Xie Lian's chair, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What question did Yu Chang ask you just now?"

The classroom in the third year of high school is like a battlefield. This is an intrigue that only exists among students.

Xie Lian glanced at his face as if facing a formidable enemy, and said with a half-smile, "Ask him yourself." He raised his chin forward, "Aren't you still there?"

"Hey, don't, is it the tenth question of filling in the blanks? The teacher didn't explain this question in class. Is it the method of solving the problem..."

Wang Hongbo looked back and forth at the time three or four times, seeing that the hour hand was pointing to ten o'clock, and finally couldn't bear it. "It's okay, it's okay," he made a shocking gesture, "What time is it, and all the people on duty have disappeared, and if you catch me like this again and ask me, Brother Lian dare not take the first place in the exam ah!"

Looking up, it was indeed getting late, Xie Lian left a message for the person next to him, "I'll talk about it tomorrow", hooked up her schoolbag and got up to leave, but stopped before taking two steps forward, turned around and said: " What Yu Chang just asked was how much I spent on Double Twelve."

Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, Xie Lian lost about 2 points to No.10. After the evening self-study get out of class, he was surrounded and questioned for a long time. It was almost 30:[-] when he was carried to the door by the small battery car.

Feng Ruzi was sitting on the sofa watching TV, when she heard the door being opened, she put down her coffee cup and turned her head to look, "Xiao Lian is back." There was a reply from the other side, and she turned her head back again, but she did not expect that out of the corner of her eye there would be a She saw Xie Lian limping towards the bedroom.

"Xiao Lian," she put the cup in her hand on the coffee table, and quickly walked around the sofa, "what's wrong with your leg?"

Xie Lian took a small step back, and said in a flat tone, "It's nothing."

But as soon as Feng Ruzi took his arm and took him two steps towards the sofa, he let out an uncontrollably light inhalation sound.

It has already reached this level, how could Feng Ruzi believe the "nothing" he said.

"Let mom see it!"

"Mom..." The trouser legs on both sides were gently rolled up. Xie Lian was really not used to this kind of closeness, and was so awkward that he wanted to run away.

How can boat socks prevent injuries.At the moment when the school trousers were pushed up, a blue-purple swelling appeared undisguisedly, showing its existence carelessly on the ankle.

Feng Ruzi gasped, "How did you get hurt? When did you get hurt? Have you been to the hospital?"

She asked several questions in a row, but got only silence.

Xie Lian didn't say anything, so she could only guess quickly by herself, but with this guess, her eyes became hot.Where else is there to guess?When she was at home, she was fine; when she came back, she was like this.This made her think of the phone call she received on the day she left in a hurry. Xie Lian rarely called her, so what was it that time?

The answer has long been out.

Feng Ruzi stood up, put on her mobile phone and walked to the hanger, tore off a coat and put it on, then stepped on a rare pair of flat shoes and went out.The whole set of actions seemed to be orderly, but her hand that had just put on the doorknob was visibly shaking.

Xie Lian watched quietly, thinking to himself, when was the last time he was worried.After thinking about it for a long time, I found that I couldn't remember clearly.

When Feng Ruzi came back, the ponytail behind her was loose, and the black leather cord that tied her hair slid down loosely due to the violent running, and a few strands of broken hair came out from the branches, mixed with the already scattered bangs, and were pulled behind the ears .

Her elegant and intellectual image in the past has disappeared, and the only image left tonight is that of a mother.

She took a bag of medicine and squatted in front of Xie Lian, before taking off her coat, she hurriedly opened the plaster box.

Xie Lian took a look into the bag, and found that the several medicines inside were all regular medicines at home, and Feng Ruzi bought them herself two days before moving.But with his mother's messy hair in front of him, he found himself speechless.

Feng Ruzi lowered her head and tore off the plastic paper behind the plaster. Xie Lian saw her shoulders shrugging.

"It's okay, Mom." Xie Lian thought she was in a hurry, "Go and rest for a while, I can do it myself."

Ke Feng Ruzi didn't speak.

Xie Lian felt strange, and called "Mom" again, but then heard a choked sob.

It turned out that Feng Ruzi was crying.

"Xiao Lian, mom is sorry for you..." She put her hands on her knees, her voice was low and hoarse, "Mom has never been able to take good care of you, from childhood to now, it has never been... It's mom's fault, Xiao Lian , I'm sorry, Xiaolian..."

Xie Lian's body was a little stiff, but the blood inside was flowing like a rushing river, like hot molten iron.

He wanted to say "it's just a sprain, it's nothing", but he soon realized that Feng Ruzi's tears were not for today, they were also for yesterday, and yesterday, a long, long time ago.

The next day, Xie Lian turned off the alarm and got up from the bed. When he got out of the bedroom, he bumped into Feng Ruzi directly.

"It's all like this and you still run around." Feng Ruzi supported his arm, and sent him back to the bed, "Mom has already asked you for leave, and you will be recuperating at home this week!"

"Mom, I can't go to school yet."

Feng Ruzi raised her index finger and tapped his forehead, "It's the third year of high school, it's all review lessons, there is no new content, I believe you can learn well at home."

Feng Ruzi was indeed correct in these two sentences.

Xie Lian is very self-disciplined both at school and at home.He made a review plan for himself every day, implemented it mechanically during the day, and continued to do it after receiving the papers sent by Wang Hongtao at night, day after day.

It's just that something is wrong.

The chatting between classes on weekdays was replaced by doing nothing, and when the chattering noises around him disappeared, he was in absolute silence, and he almost had uncontrollable thoughts in his spare time.

He thought a lot, but if he peeled off the outermost hard shell, he found that the soft core inside was all Jiang Ye.

The name randomly drawn on the draft paper was Jiang Ye, and the sudden distraction when turning the pen was because he thought of Jiang Ye, let alone took the bowl of grapes brought by Feng Ruzi. He looked at this sweet fruit, Needless to say who was seen through them.

Not being influenced, Xie Lian thought, but infiltrating.

[br]

After these days of recuperation, Xie Lian is recovering well. Even though he is not able to walk easily, he is still more than half recovered. He has to go to school for the exam on Saturday no matter what.

Weekly exams are always similar, the only difference from the first week is the greetings from teachers and classmates in turn.Although he didn't go to school for a week, he didn't miss a bit of his review, and even handed in the last physics test ahead of schedule.

With the privilege given by the head teacher, Xie Lian didn't have to go back to the classroom to study by himself after the exam, but could directly carry his schoolbag home.He took a taxi and started playing with his mobile phone as usual after getting in the car. After a long time, the car didn't move.

"Master, what's the matter?" He lowered his eyes and asked lazily.

Unexpectedly, the driver in front slapped his chin excitedly, "Oh, it really is you!"

Xie Lian raised her eyes and stared at him several times up, down, left, and right, but she didn't recognize any familiar faces.

"In the morning, the area in the North District," he further reminded, seeing that there was no response from the other side, "Give me two pieces of chocolate!"

Xie Lian let out a long "ah", "It's you."

"That's not true, what fate!"

The driver cheerfully shifted gears, looked in the rearview mirror and turned around from the school gate, "It's not easy for us to do this job, I will always remember what you gave that day, and it warms my heart when I think about it! My wife also said , this child is really kind, and will definitely be blessed in the future, and everything will go smoothly."

Xie Lian locked the phone screen and thanked in a low voice.

"By the way," he said again hesitantly, "You...do you know what brand the chocolate I gave you is?"

The driver smiled, "Stupid boy, why can't I remember what I bought. Where is the brand? Isn't that the most common kind of wedding candy in the market!"

"Do you know where they are sold?"

"There is a small Xinghai Wholesale Market a little further north of the North District, and there is a designated one there. What's wrong?"

Xie Lian lowered his head and pressed the phone, "I have to trouble you to drive me for a while."

Xie Lian was put down at the main entrance of Xinghai Small Market, and as soon as he got out of the car, he jumped into the overflowing atmosphere of the market.

There are brooms and dustpans on both sides of the gate. The store uses several large tables to form a platform outside the store, and directly sells the goods in the house on the top.A road was opened between these two shops, which can be regarded as the main road here. It has been spreading to the depths, and there are constant forks on both sides of the road, and there are bargaining and shouting everywhere.

Xie Lian walked along this road and found a wedding candy shop not long after.Dozens of colorful candies were assigned to different grids, and among them was the one Xie Lian was looking for.

The young female boss handed Xie Lian a plastic bag, "The price is the same, and the money is calculated by the catty."

Xie Lian threw a few pieces of brand-name chocolates into the bag and handed them to her. After taking it, the female boss put the bag on the electronic scale, looked at it twice, and said to him, "Fifteen."

"WeChat payment." Xie Lian took out his phone.

The boss sitting next door cracking sunflower seeds smiled, leaned over and shouted at him, "Why doesn't my little brother bargain? This price, oh, outrageous!"

"You're the one who talks too much!" The female boss rolled her eyes, "Come on, let's count you five yuan!"

Xie Lian walked out of the Xinghai Wholesale Market with a plastic bag in his hands, and finally turned his head to take a look. This is the place where Jiang Ye has been, and he has been here now.

After this matter was done, Xie Lian looked for a taxi at the intersection, and turned his head to see a bus stop sign with "Route 19" printed in red letters on it.This bus passed the gate of the North Community, and then went south through the Attached Middle School and the Third Middle School. Xie Lian had seen it on the street more than once.

He was supposed to take a taxi home, as usual.But Jiang always took the bus.

Jiang Ye's life unfolds before his eyes.

After thinking for a while, Xie Lian walked slowly to the stop sign of the bus.

After getting in the car, Xie Lian looked at the receding scenery outside the window, and thought of all the strange things about himself these days.

What the hell is that.

He never learned about love through his parents, and he was confused when he discovered his sexuality in junior high school.Things didn't get any better in high school.The boys in the science class call them brothers, and the same-sex people around him are almost all Wang Hongtao-like existences, brothers, friends.That's all.

But Jiang also appeared, he is a special existence.

Xie Lian closed his eyes.

In the darkness, the sound of the bus stop announcement sounded, and he arrived at the North Community, but he didn't get off the bus.The same goes for the next few stops.Home is getting farther and farther behind, but he feels that the answer he wants is ahead.

The scenery outside the window changed rapidly together with the sky, the street lamps lit up row by row, and the familiar gate of the attached high school retreated quickly.After passing this stop, the No. [-] Middle School arrived immediately after.At the last moment when the rear door closed, he escaped from the crowded car and walked aimlessly against the crowd at the school gate.

He no longer cared about what he was going to do, whether he could see Jiang Ye, but now he just wanted to get closer, closer, closer to Jiang Ye, and closer to Guang.

Emotions like liking are complicated, but if phototaxis is one of them, then Xie Lian is defined on this basis, and it is settled.
