Rosewood Hills

The elevator displays the number 23, and the old party's house is on the right hand side of the elevator entrance.

Before they could knock, the door was opened.

"Brother Wang, Brother Chang Chang, long time no see!" A boy leaned out half of his body from behind the door, smiling all over his face, showing two canine teeth.

"Hey, Xiaoliu, I heard from the old party that you applied for our university?" Wang Si generously gave the boy a two-hundred-pound hug again, and he didn't let go until his face turned slightly red as he struggled.

This boy is Ren Lu, the son of the old party's stepmother.I just finished the college entrance examination last month, and I am bored waiting for the start of school.Ren Lu's high school is in the same city as their university, so both Wang Si and Chang Chang have met him several times.

Wang Si has always been good at making friends, and he quickly became acquainted with Ren Lu with such a weird reason as "I am a 'four', Ren Lu is a 'six', and together they are 'perfect'".

In contrast, Chang Chang didn't have so much to say with Ren Lu, after all, he was just the younger brother of his roommate.

Sometimes Ren Lu looks at him a little... weird?But when we got along, Ren Lu spoke very politely, and he called Brother Chang unambiguously. Chang Chang was puzzled for a while and then put this strange feeling behind him.

After Ren Lu led them to the guest room to put their luggage, he suddenly remembered something: "I just cooked mung bean porridge today, and it's been in the refrigerator for a few hours. I'll get you two bowls."

Between the words, he looked like the owner of the house.Forgot to say, this is the old party's own house.The old party moved out when he became an adult, but Ren Lu couldn't help but still ran towards him every few days.The old party often said how annoying this younger brother is, but maybe this is also a manifestation of brotherhood.

Sitting on the coffee table while eating and watching TV, the old party came in.Obviously there are still many seats on the sofa, but Lao Dang went straight to Chang Chang and sat down.

Chang Chang paused and continued to drink porridge.

Wang Si drank two bowls without restraint, wiped his mouth and said, "So Xiao Liu, why did you choose our school?"

Chang Chang felt that someone had been staring at him, and when he looked up, he accidentally met Ren Lu's eyes.

However, Ren Lu turned his head as if nothing had happened, and replied with a smile: "I often go to see my brother. I think the school is good, the environment is good, and there is a lot of food."

After hearing this, Wang Si was very satisfied: "Yes, yes, it is very good that our school eats this. Remember to come to our dormitory when the school starts, and you will inherit the stack of takeout orders."

The old party has been playing with the remote control since he sat down, and then he interjected coldly: "You're still running after your brother's ass, you'd better find a girlfriend as soon as school starts, it's time to change to an old lady. "

Ren Lu didn't speak, leaning on the chair a little aggrieved.

The old party has always been dissatisfied with the independence of this half-way brother, although Chang Chang thinks that Ren Lu is just a little clingy.

Chang Chang felt that the scene was a bit awkward, and wanted to find some topics to relieve it.

He suddenly noticed the vase next to the TV, with small clusters of white flowers blooming, reserved and quiet, with an inexplicable familiarity.

Chang Chang seemed to recall something, surprised and said: "Wow, you really like this flower, it's the same as last time you came here. It's called..." Uh, I can't remember.

The old party raised his eyebrows, as if he realized that "you" referred to him - he thought Chang Chang didn't plan to talk to him this time.

"hyacinth."

"Ah... that's right." Chang Chang came back to his senses, responded, and hurriedly picked up the spoon.

The air suddenly froze, or everyone was tired, the old party stood up first: "I have to take the bus tomorrow, let's rest early today."

Seeing that the old party was about to leave, Ren Lu hurriedly said, "Brother, I want to go too."

The old party said: "It's said that only college students can go. You can have fun when you are on vacation, why are you messing around with us?"

"But I want to. At worst I'll go on vacation and get a room."

After seeing that pitiful face, the old party said helplessly, "You should tell your parents."

"I already said it yesterday and they agreed."

The old party sighed and went upstairs.

"Brother is still angry, angry that I didn't go to University B." Ren Lu propped his chin, staring at the table in a daze, looking extremely melancholy.

"Xiao Liu, to be honest, you didn't choose our school because of the old party, did you?" Wang Si asked,

Ren Lu looked away with a guilty conscience: "Uh, maybe 90.00% of the reasons?"

Wang Si & Chang Chang: ...

In an instant, I can understand the mood of the old party.

Chang Chang walked into the bathroom with a bath towel and reached for the body wash, only to find out what was on the cabinet.

There is a hyacinth on the top of the cabinet, the bouquet faces inward, and the flower branches are folded very short.

Chang Chang remembered that three years ago, he and Wang Si couldn't help pulling out a flower branch to play, but Wang Si sat down on his buttocks.Because he was afraid of being talked about by the old party, he quietly put it on the glass cabinet, destroying the body and obliterating the traces.

The old party doesn't often use the toilet in the guest room, so it shouldn't be discovered.

Chang Chang stretched out his hand to take down the flower, but he didn't feel the dust in his imagination.Fingertips touch the petals, even a little wet.

After three years, it is impossible for the flowers to still be so bright.Did the old party deliberately replace it with a new flower?Still folded into exactly the same as back then?It doesn't make sense.

Speaking of which, there is no change in this room, perhaps because of the guest room.But he also noticed that the furnishings in the living room were almost the same as the last time he came, something was wrong, or it was just his illusion.

Chang Chang almost took a shower with doubts, and walked back to the room while wiping his hair, but was stopped by a person.

The old party looked at him with folded arms, obviously waiting for him.

Chang Chang was a little uncomfortable, and wanted to leave after saying hello, but he grabbed his arm.

Even in the hot summer, his body temperature was too cold.

"Do you think it's all my fault?" the old party said.

Chang Chang was taken aback by the cold fingers, and took a step back unconsciously.

The old party was also stunned, and after letting go of his hand, he thought for a long time before saying.

"Good night."

Chang Chang didn't look at him again, and walked back to the room quickly.

Lying on the bed, he suddenly began to miss a period of time.

When they were freshmen, they stayed up late to play games and fell asleep the next day, and they climbed over the wall to buy supper when they were hungry in the middle of the night.

Those were the days when it sounded a little slutty, but a little bit crazy.And then... what happened next?

Chang Chang couldn't remember, so he had to let himself fall asleep.
