Years old

During the seven-day National Day holiday, Qi Songyan's parents only stayed at home for a day and a half, but this is already very unusual.So even if they didn't ask when the midterm exam was, and didn't care about how their son, who has always been good at sports, performed in the sports meeting, Qi Songyan didn't mention it himself, but in this limited time, they still seemed warm and harmonious a family of three.

Qi Songyan sometimes feels that it's not that his parents, who are used to observing words and emotions, can't distinguish his subtle emotions, no matter how well they hide them, after all, he is still a half-grown boy, and in the eyes of adults, they are just sloppy cover-ups.But, they don't care.Those little depressions that are exposed under the nose are not worth bothering about, just children throwing tantrums.They have enough food, clothing and warmth to study well, and they feel that they are much higher than other parents.

After a day and a half of being filial to his parents, Qi Songyan finally lived a life of autism as he wished.Apart from eating, sleeping, and doing homework every day, he thinks about life in every corner where he can stand, and the farthest is no further than the hawthorn tree in the courtyard of the community.The subject of thinking can be summed up in one sentence: Why is Qin Di angry?

He understands that no matter how good-tempered a person is, it is inevitable that they will lose control sometimes, but it is a bit puzzling that he has hit a wall in several helpful overtures.He consciously acted quietly, as if passing by a fallen flower branch and helping him casually, he could vaguely feel pity in nature, refining the experience of being forced to operate at the dining table for many years in an intangible form, and it was like a textbook.Unexpectedly, it ended up grinning and breaking up.

Does Qin Di hate help?Or resent his help?Or resent him?The more Qi Songyan assumed, the colder his heart became. He couldn't even make an objective analysis, so he put his face on the piano key cover, feeling extremely sad.

The doorbell rang loudly, and he didn't even want to move his fingertips. He hunched over and pretended to be dead until his thigh was numb from the vibration, and then he took it out and said "Hello" dejectedly.

"What's wrong? Are you sick? Open the door for me first."

He dragged his legs to open the door for Si Junyao, and unexpectedly he handed it to his eyes with a palm full of fur.

"This is?"

"I picked it up on the road, find me a small cardboard box, the little guy is very fierce."

"it is good."

Qi Songyan took out a cardboard box, and put a soft cloth in under Si Junyao's command. Si Junyao stretched his hands in, and quickly retracted it when he loosened it. Only then did Qi Songyan see clearly that it was too small. cat.

The original white hair on the belly was dirty and smeared, but the raccoon flower on the face on the back was still very beautiful.With a pointed chin and a pair of big eyes staring, the back is arched when the hand is stretched out, and the tip of the claw is opened, screaming fiercely.

"Don't touch it. It's too fierce. I didn't dare to let go of its arms and legs all the way. I hugged it like a pigeon. It almost bit me."

"With such a bad temper, you still catch it?"

"Look at its hind legs, the fur was bitten off after fighting with the big cat, and it was about to rush again. I quickly held it down and took it away."

"Feed it something?"

"There is nothing for it to eat at home, and it needs to drink goat's milk at such a young age, so let's pretend to drink for nothing."

Qi Songyan found a seasoning dish filled with water and placed it in front of it, but the kitten still bared its teeth at him with a wary expression.He pushed the plate forward again, and it stuck to the cat's foot, and it slapped it on the back of his hand, leaving a few white marks.

"Hiss, why are you so fierce, you don't know what's good or bad, you beat me even if you treat me well."

"It can't think about what's good for it, maybe it's still angry that I stopped it's key battle to dominate the entire street."

Qi Songyan squatted and confronted the little group of fierce beasts, he always felt that he had seen such an exasperated appearance somewhere, and his heart began to cool down again.While it wasn't paying attention, I stretched out my hand and patted it on the head. The kitten whined, and he whined too.Si Junyao pushed him, "Why are you bullying the kids? Alright, put it in the bathroom first, I'll take it away after class, let's go out."

Qi Songyan closed the door, thought for a while and came back to turn on the warm air. The cat ignored him and licked its bald hind leg.Little heartless, just like someone.

When the two sat in the study, Si Junyao looked at his face carefully and asked him, "Isn't it sick?"

"No."

"Did the sports meet fail?"

"No, the grades are pretty good."

"The class representative is missing?"

Qi Songyan didn't speak, Si Junyao nodded with an expression that I understood, "Do you want to chat?"

Qi Songyan lowered his head, but asked an irrelevant question: "Why is the cat angry?"

Si Junyao didn't look at him, opened his homework, and responded casually: "It has its territory and the way it lives on. I think I invaded its life for its own good. Of course it is angry."

"Is it wrong to protect it? Should it be left alone?"

"No. It's not happy with it. It's just like that. It's not a good life. Wait for me to give it a better environment, but get along with it on an equal footing without anything in return. We get to know each other slowly, and it will trust me one day , accept me as a resident of its territory, and understand that my concern is not condescending pity."

Qi Songyan was lost in thought, and Si Junyao threw the exercise book in front of him: "Okay, don't look like a girl thinking about it, what are you writing for homework?"

"No, teacher, listen to my explanation, you don't know, that cat is very fierce..."

"Copy this ten times for me."

"teacher……"

When Si Junyao took the cat away, Qi Songyan was actually a little reluctant.Plush Tuanzi fell asleep with its tail wrapped around its hind legs, and it did not forget to cover up its embarrassment in its dream.How can I let the cat know that I am not overwhelmed with love, but that I really think it is beautiful and can fight.

But Si Jun Yaofei said that this is related to whether he can become a lucky person with both cats and dogs at the age of 30, holding the small cardboard box and refusing to leave it for half a step.After sending him out of the neighborhood, Qi Songyan was still thinking, never heard that he had a dog at home...

The coolness of the autumn rain poured into his cuffs, and he stood under the tree and began to miss the kitten, and also missed the light yellow handkerchief and thick notes, he had just established feelings with them, and they were forced to separate for so long .Who said that only girls can have worries, but boys can't?

He took out his mobile phone and called Li Mingxuan: "Hey, Xuan, I'm a boy... No, I'm Qi Songyan... I want to ask you something..."

City S is divided into north and south banks by a river passing through the city, and No. [-] Middle School and City Library are located side by side on the north bank.In the library building, only the library rooms can buy tickets to enter, where unlimited reading can be carried out.Later, the five large unoccupied classrooms were opened to the public as self-study rooms, and middle school students in the city could go to self-study for free with their student ID cards.

Qin Di usually spends her weekends and holidays here.Like going to school as usual, he would take the bus in the early morning, arrive at the library after a few songs, go straight to the corner behind the pillar of the third study room, spread out the books, and buy a five-yuan reading ticket when he was tired of studying, and take a few Read a book of this very different type for a while, or simply go downstairs and sit on the embankment, lost in thought with the waving willow branches.

Most of the classrooms are students from No. [-] Middle School, who recognize him but don't bother him very much.Most of them come in groups and go out to eat noisy at noon. There are also young couples who bought snacks and milk tea and leaned their heads on their seats to watch animations or episodes.Occasionally, courageous girls from other schools asked him questions or even asked for a phone call, but he smiled and refused.The big window behind him cast a warm sun, and he was very comfortable in this bright corner.

So when the phone in his pocket vibrated, he thought it was his mother, Jiang Hong. After all, although she didn't care about his whereabouts most of the time, she would still make more than a dozen calls to scold him when things went wrong. Running out every day, I am too ambitious to stay at home.He took out his mobile phone and looked at it. It was an unfamiliar number. After hesitating a few times, he walked out of the classroom and answered softly: "Hello, hello."

"Is it Qin Di?" asked a nice and familiar voice over there.

"Yes, who are you?"

"I'm Qi Songyan."

"…Is there a problem?"

"Some of Xiaoke's homework is what I learned before. I don't understand it a bit. Can I borrow your notes?"

"...OK, I'm in the city library, come and find me."

"Thank you."

"you are welcome."

You don't need to be polite when you say it, but every word can't be more unfamiliar, it seems that the heavy rain that day has washed away all the familiarity that has just been accumulated during this period, and even the trace of that conflict has been erased.

Apart from being annoyed at her gaffe at that time, Qin Di didn't feel sorry.He can't accept anyone treating him as a weak person, as long as he thinks he can resist, he doesn't need any heart-warming intervention.Qi Songyan may be like Li Mingxuan once said, he is used to being a gentleman, and when he accidentally discovered his weakness, he meddled in his own business again and again.

He was thinking like this, but he hugged the brick-thick notebook and went downstairs early to wait at the door.The wind in the afternoon was still cold after a few days of heavy rain, behind the rows of willow branches, the sparkling spots of light on the river jumped into his eyes one after another.

Qi Songyan's house is not far away, and he will arrive soon by bicycle.From a distance, I saw Qin Di standing at the door with thin clothes and holding a notebook, kicked his legs against the wind, and stopped precisely in front of him.

"Waiting for half a day?"

"No, I just came down. Here you are." Qin Di hurriedly focused his attention on the notes, trying his best to ignore Qi Songyan's flamboyant attire.Obviously he is someone who doesn't even want to wear a pink school uniform. The pure white hooded sweater is actually paired with a pair of bright red drawstrings. He also stepped on a pair of bright red basketball shoes. Coupled with his dimple, it made Qin Di dizzy .

Qi Songyan took the note but didn't intend to leave. He twitched his nose a few times and murmured to Qin Di, "It's too windy to ride here, and my hands are numb from the cold."

Qin Di glanced at him and said, "Then you lock the car, and I'll warm you up."

Qi Songyan pushed the car into the shed and locked it, trotted a few steps and followed Qin Di into the building.There are several vending machines on the inside of the lobby on the first floor, selling drinks, snacks and the like.Qin Di stood in front of a self-service coffee machine and stuffed four coins into it. The machine spit out a small paper cup with a click, and then filled it with hot coffee.Qin Di took it and handed it to him, and when the next drink was ready, she held it in her hand and signaled him to follow.

A beautiful spiral staircase spirals upwards, and the glass ceiling lets in ample sunlight.The study room and reading room are both at the back of the building, directly connected by elevators, and almost no one walks around here.Qin Di turned two corners, chose a pleasing step and sat down, and Qi Songyan also sat next to him.In the empty hall, only fine dust was swimming in the bright light. Qin Di took a sip of coffee and narrowed his eyes warmly.

"You all come here for self-study?"

"Well. It doesn't cost money, the chairs are comfortable, and the view is beautiful."

"Don't you think it's a bit noisy when there are too many people?"

Qin Di took out an mp3 from his pocket and brought out a handkerchief, which was picked up by Qi Songyan.

"I always sit in the corner, so I don't make any noise when I listen to music."

He rubbed the mirror screen of the mp3, but accidentally turned it on. Qi Songyan saw a line of white words floating past, ""Phoenix Bathing in Fire"--Qi Songyan".Qin Di immediately pressed the close button, wrapped the headphone cable tightly and stuffed it back into his pocket.It was a demo song that Qi Songyan played and sang by himself. Before he came, Qin Di happened to play this song.

Qi Songyan didn't point out his intention to hide it, he squeezed the handkerchief under his nose and sniffed it, "I haven't seen you for a few days, it's weird."

Qin Di snatched the handkerchief back, knowing that he was talking to the handkerchief, but his heartbeat still jumped out at the full stop at the end of the speech, and hurriedly buried his face in the cloud rising from the small paper cup.

Qi Songyan held up the paper cup with both hands, paused and said, "I'm sorry that day."

Qin Di was stunned for a moment, and squeezed out an "um" from her throat.

Qi Songyan bumped him with his shoulder, "You're welcome, um, what, shouldn't you say 'I'm wrong'?"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Are we two friends?"

"…Calculate."

"My friend saw that you were injured and wanted to help. What's the matter? If I was the one who was injured that day, wouldn't you send me back?"

"I will definitely give it, but I don't need it."

"Just ask you if it hurts or not, if you lie, you will fail in the middle of the term."

"It hurts, but..."

"No but. Qin Di, people come and go. You borrow my notes, and I treat you to dinner. You help me plan the sports meeting, and I help you block the casting of the class meeting. You earn so much for me How many points, I'll take you home. That's how friends get along. You borrowed my notes today and bought me coffee, so you still have to take this medicine." Qi Songyan put a small bottle in Qin Di's arms, Qin Di looked down, it was the gel that aided in healing.

Holding the bottle, he drank the last sip of coffee, "I have a lot to talk about today, how many days have you drafted?"

"It won't be long, you'll be wooing me again next time."

"What aww?"

"It's nothing. Qin Di, it's not sympathy, and you don't need to be sympathized. You are good everywhere, and you are brilliant. If you need to be sympathized, then I really can't live like a scumbag. You have you No one wants to invade your territory, I just want to look up at you in your light."

Qin Di crushed the paper cup and stood up abruptly.

"what?"

Qin Di tilted her head and looked down at Qi Songyan's amber pupils, which were illuminated by the sunlight, and raised her eyebrows: "Let you look up at me."

After they both laughed, Qi Songyan blushed from choking, took the paper cup in his hand and threw it into the trash can along with his own.

"I'm leaving, go back and study the boss' notes."

"If there is no way, I will ask the boss."

"Boss, do you have WeChat or QQ? You can't keep calling, it's really annoying."

Qin Di took out his mobile phone and hit him on the face, confidently: "I do have a mobile phone, but I really don't have the Internet. My card can only make and receive calls and send text messages. I am so poor, so you can dream back to 2000." , have a text message beforehand."

"Okay. See you the day after tomorrow."

"See you the day after tomorrow."

They bid farewell at the door, and each took the ointment and notes.Guang followed the brisk steps of the boy in the shirt and sank into the long corridor. The wind quilted the bicycle far behind him, turned around and continued to shake the weeping willows on the shore.

Their backs were turned away from each other, but they came closer.
