Sound waves

On the eve of New Year's Day in 08, Shu Mingxuan graduated from the dubbing training class and called his parents.

Shu's mother, as always, urged him to go home and have a look, but Shu Mingxuan put it off with a few words.When I hung up the phone and came back from the balcony, it happened to be the time for the news broadcast.

Shu Mingxuan sat on the sofa, and after a while, he slowly moved to his side and sat next to the teacher.

Seeing that he didn't respond, she leaned her head on his shoulder again and rubbed against him.

Ouyang Qing watched the news seriously, raised her hand and casually touched the top of his head, pampering him like she was treating her own child.

Shu Mingxuan went too far, putting his arms around his shoulders, and stuck his whole body on it, like a big sticky candy.

Ouyang Qing helplessly laughed a few times, letting him play around.

It wasn't until the end of the news broadcast that Ouyang Qing turned around and asked him, "How was your chat with mom?"

"It's nothing, just let me go home."

"It's almost New Year's Day, you're fine, go home and stay for a few days."

"I won't go back." Shu Mingxuan muttered dissatisfied, "I've been training in closed doors for more than 20 days, and I finally came back to see the teacher."

"Go back, your parents still miss you."

Shu Mingxuan figured out some unusual emotions from his meaning.

"Teacher, you have been living alone... where do your parents live?" Shu Mingxuan asked him.

Ouyang Qing froze slightly, and said casually, "I don't live with them."

"Aren't you going home on New Year's Day?"

Ouyang Qing smiled: "Yes."

"What about the Spring Festival?"

"I don't go home either." Ouyang Qing said, "I don't go home during holidays... In fact, I haven't been back for many years."

"Ah? Why..." Shu Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly added, "It's fine if the teacher doesn't want to say it."

"There is nothing I can't say. My father is a professor of mathematics. He wanted me to inherit his mantle and study mathematics, even physics. When I was young, I was very stubborn and insisted on this path. During the college entrance examination I signed up for the show, and when I got the admission notice... the old man was not happy."

"That's not the case." Shu Mingxuan didn't understand, "Aren't you also teaching at the university now?"

"It's not just this one. The relationship has eased for a while, and soon I will reach the marriageable age. My parents introduced me to a girl who is well-matched. I didn't agree."

"I told my family that I can't delay other girls because..." Ouyang Qing lowered her eyes, "Because I'm gay."

Shu Mingxuan was taken aback for a moment, and reflexively let go of Ouyang Qing's shoulder.

Ouyang Qing didn't look at him.

But Shu Mingxuan felt guilty, and explained in a panic: "Teacher, I'm not—"

"It's okay." Ouyang Qing said, "I've wanted to talk to you about this for a long time, but I didn't know how to say it. Now your training class is over... It just so happens that it's New Year's Day."

He put the remote on the table and stood up.

"Whether to go or stay, you can decide for yourself. No matter what you choose, the teacher will support you. Xiao Shu."

As soon as the sparks ignited, they almost started an uncontrollable prairie fire in this heated space.

Everything in front of my eyes became blurred.

When being pushed down on her own soft bed, Ouyang Qing didn't quite understand what had happened before.

He raised his head, and in his sight, his hands were clasped with Shu Mingxuan's.

In the ear is the former student, breathing rapidly.

……

He is no longer young, and has passed the most prosperous years.

His students are no longer young, and they have stood up from stumbling to today.

It's a wonderful feeling.

It's like watering a young sapling, and it's like feeding a little life.To shield him from the wind and rain, to teach him everything, to watch him grow up, until one day...he has nothing to give him anymore.

So he surrendered his heart.

He also surrendered himself.

……

When the emotions are extremely strong, passionate and revealing.

Teacher Ouyang was finally completely lost in the beautiful dream his students had made for him, with his hands hooked around his neck, he was ups and downs in the confused sea.

"teacher……"

Someone was calling him in his ear.

"I'm here." He replied quietly.

There were tears in the corner of his eyes, and he didn't know why.

So he gently called the name in his heart with his extremely gentle voice.

"I'm here, little Shu."

The only thing Mr. Ouyang is good at is probably Jiuniangyuanzi, which has been playing steadily and has never failed.

In view of the painful lessons he had learned at his own home, Shu Mingxuan definitely couldn't let him touch the pots and pans again.

So Boss Shu got up early and went downstairs to buy soy milk fritters.

The soy milk shop at the entrance of the alley is still there, and the owner has not changed.

"Two sets." Boss Shu said when he passed by.

His voice was so recognizable that even though he was wearing a scarf, the boss recognized him immediately.

"Yo, is Xiao Shu back?"

"It's me, good morning, sir."

"It's been several years, come back to see Teacher Ouyang?"

"Yes, it's been a few years." Shu Mingxuan sighed.

The boss wrapped fried dough sticks for him and made soy milk. When he handed it to him, he said: "When I have time, I will come and see Teacher Ouyang. I don't usually see any friends. When I had a throat operation a few years ago, I went to the hospital all day long. , and no one to accompany her. It looks so pitiful."

Shu Mingxuan paused, and asked, "When did Teacher Ouyang perform the surgery?"

The boss thought for a while: "For four or five years. I heard that all the classes in the school were suspended. It was only in the second half of last year that the substitute classes started again. You know that there are many young teachers now, and his previous classes have already been covered by someone. Now in the teaching affairs I'm teaching electives."

"His throat... do you know what's wrong with it?"

"I don't know about that." The boss sighed seeing his expression.

"We are both old neighbors for more than ten years. Let me tell you the truth. Teacher Ouyang has a cold face and a warm heart. He also helps me a lot at ordinary times. Teacher Ouyang was responsible for my son's study." The boss said, "But Xiao Shu, you haven't come back to see the teacher in the past few years. It's too unreasonable. No one was there when he needed someone to take care of him the most... Tsk tsk, Teacher Ouyang was really hard for those two years."

Shu Mingxuan was silent for a while: "Thank you sir, I understand."

"Hey, I'm just talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart."

"You are right in criticizing me, but I did not do well."

Shu Mingxuan walked back with his breakfast.

Reminds me of the past.

Sometimes, he felt that he really didn't understand his teacher, since they were already so close.

but……

He is so exciting.

He pictured Ouyang Qing's eyebrows in his heart...

Think of everything he has experienced alone in these years.

My heart hurts.
