midsummer night

"Dididi—!" The sharp alarm bell rang through the night community.

People from different floors opened the door in their pajamas and poked their heads out.He quickly grabbed his ID, wallet and keys, put on his shoes and pressed the elevator button, but the elevator stopped automatically.

Entering the stairwell through the small door, there is the sound of running upstairs and downstairs, sleepy old people and middle-aged people walking down the stairwell with their children in their arms.

That Alpha had just chased to the stairwell, and had only gone down two floors, then squeezed among several people and entered the downward stairs together.He Xiyuan's figure was mixed among the people, looking down from the armrest, he couldn't tell which one was him.

When He Xiyuan came to the ground with the residents of the lower floors, there were already people standing in the community, looking upstairs in confusion to see which floor was on fire.

He Xiyuan called the police and said: "Someone followed me in the middle of the night and followed me around my residence. He had been harassing me for a long time before. He tried to break into the door in the middle of the night, so I couldn't press the fire button."

The lights in the building next door were also turned on, and he stood in the shadows, watching people pouring out of the corridor calmly.

There was only one exit from that building, and Alpha, who was hiding in the dark of the stairwell, had to come out with the crowd.

He turned on the camera of his mobile phone and faced the door until the figure appeared. He took several photos in a row and watched the person move to the gate of the community and then disappeared.

When He Xiyuan handed the photo to the police, the other party listened to his narration in disbelief.

Sitting next to him, Lin Xin said that Alpha's ex was Zhao Yiming, and gave the police a blocked phone number and social account information.

The policeman nodded and sent them home. Before leaving, the policeman on duty said, "Don't press the fire button casually in the future. When it's time to break up, just break up cleanly and talk well."

Lin Xin and He Xiyuan looked at the policeman together, Lin Xin nodded, and He Xiyuan saw the name tag on his chest from the other person's eyes, and replied: "Thank you, Officer Zhao, for your suggestion, but you see that you are squatting at the stairs of my house in the middle of the night. , Should I take out the ax from the fire cabinet and chop him up, or should I invite him in and talk about it?"

The police officer surnamed Zhao looked down at his name tag, and became a little annoyed. He closed the lid of the water tank and said, "We have already arrested him. He should be detained and mediated. If two Omegas live together, don't Most of the night is still wandering outside."

He Xiyuan: "You should tell Alpha more often, don't hang out in the middle of the night, and don't go out if you can't help following Omega, you need to be treated if you are sick."

Then he took Lin Xin away.

The next day, he slept until very late and woke up. Near noon, he remembered the wedding that Lu Chengfeng mentioned yesterday.In fact, he hadn't watched his classmates and weddings for many years. He sent a message back to Lu Chengfeng and hooked up with Lin Xin by the way.

When Lu Chengfeng's car arrived downstairs, He Xiyuan and Lin Xin were sitting in the living room.His hair was neatly combed, and he wore only a dark gray pinstriped shirt, as a suit was too formal and unnecessary.

Lu Chengfeng's car was parked downstairs. When He Xiyuan and Lin Xin came over, he sat down and opened the door, signaling He Xiyuan to be the co-driver.

He was tall and handsome, and Lin Xin was stunned when he saw his face, sitting in the back seat and gossiping.

Lin Xin and He Xiyuan were in the same class back then, and they probably knew that He Xiyuan had a crush on the seniors.It's just that so many years have passed, she doesn't know that He Xiyuan is still in contact with the other party, and there seems to be a secret intimacy in his behavior, which can neither be deciphered nor interfered by outsiders.

He Xiyuan and Lu Chengfeng spoke a few words occasionally, taking advantage of the gap between turning their heads to look at the lines of Lu Chengfeng's profile.He almost never took Lu Chengfeng's car during the day, this scene was very different from what he remembered, so he took a few more glances.

At the traffic light at the intersection, the car stopped, and Lu Chengfeng turned his head towards him.He Xiyuan quickly took out his phone and looked at the information on the lock screen, and didn't put down the phone until the car started.

The wedding venue is a vast lawn, on which arches of pink and white flowers and white-topped cloth pavilions are set up, and the seats for guests are placed in the center of the lawn.

He Xiyuan observed the behavior of the people around him, even though he was dressed decently, he couldn't hide the vulgarity that came to him.While sitting and watching the expressions of the guests, he secretly glanced at the dishes that the hotel waiter was preparing to serve in the distance.

In the front passenger seat area, He Xiyuan is between Lu Chengfeng and Lin Xin.He occasionally talked with Lin Xin and Lu Chengfeng, and spent most of his time observing the ceremony.

To him, the wedding was like a farce. At first glance, it was a great joy, but upon closer inspection, it was extremely vulgar. After the guests left, it was even more messy and gloomy.

After all, marriage is a system, not a relationship. The system exists to safeguard the interests of a certain group.Although this group never admits that they have benefited from this system, they still clamor for the many pains and sacrifices brought about by marriage, and firmly defend the implementation of the system.

The middle-aged Alpha master of ceremonies at the wedding was like a buffoon in an absurd drama, reminding He Xiyuan of the high school dean's emphasis on "honesty, civilization, diligence, and simplicity" year after year on the podium.

Simplicity and diligence have no direct connection with civilization. Excessive simplicity will suppress the pursuit of beauty, and useless diligence will suppress human nature.There is no concept of cause and effect but it is just a dogma to force them together, just like marriage, love and childbirth in the mouth of the master of ceremonies.

When listening to the dean's speech back then, He Xiyuan stood in the crowd of countless students wearing the same uniform with nothing to do, and his mind wandered to the handsome Alpha senior in the senior year, while the other party was sitting beside him at the moment.

Lu Chengfeng attended the wedding ceremony for the principal of Xiadao International. The principal was Beta when they were studying, and their teaching and education careers were very successful.The later successor Alpha did not seem to be as popular as the previous principal. Attractive middle-aged Alphas are rare after all, and middle-aged Alphas who teach mathematics are even more difficult to be attractive.

The wedding took place at the moment when the sunset and the night were handover. There were not many guests outdoors in the late summer and early autumn.Many family members and friends of both sides knew each other from the beginning.

Yan Xun happened to be there too. He was standing beside the groom, dressed in a navy blue suit and chinos, looking cleaner than usual.Seeing Lu Chengfeng and He Xiyuan seemed to be taken aback for a moment, he stepped forward to say hello to Lu Chengfeng, looked at He Xiyuan and said, "What a coincidence, you're here too?"

Lu Chengfeng glanced between Yan Xun and He Xiyuan, but they didn't communicate much.Seeing the estrangement in He Xiyuan's politeness, his heart suddenly became clear. There is a high probability that He Xiyuan does not have a partner, and he has nothing to do with Yan Xun.

He put his hands behind He Xiyuan's back, without touching his body, but in a broad protector posture.He said to Yan Xun: "Come together by the way, maybe he can meet someone he knows. You go ahead, I'll go say hello to someone."

When Lu Chengfeng turned around, Yan Xun looked at Lu Chengfeng's arm on He Xiyuan's back and the movement of pulling away the chair. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lu Chengfeng had brought He Xiyuan into a very intimate range.

Lu Chengfeng's appearance was outstanding, the guests at the wedding whispered to each other, and they became more interested in him when asked about his identity. Some middle-aged people even brought their Omega children to his seat to introduce him.

Lu Chengfeng stood up and greeted the guests, while He Xiyuan met Lin Xin's eyes.

Lin Xin: "What's going on?! This is the senior!"

He Xiyuan: "That's right, it's the senior. When that one came to the door last night, he made a special trip."

Lin Xin: "Why don't I know?!"

He Xiyuan said in a low voice, "You've already rested. I met my seniors this year because of work, and then occasionally met at work, that's all."

Lin Xin: "What do you mean it's just like that! So do you still like him now?"

He Xiyuan smiled, glanced at Lu Chengfeng who was standing beside him, shook his head, and said, "Keep your voice down, I haven't liked anyone since work."

Lin Xin was still in shock and didn't look back. The wedding was about to begin, and the guests were all seated one after another.Lu Chengfeng glanced at He Xiyuan and asked, "Why are you talking so happily?"

He Xiyuan didn't change his face: "Let's talk about seniors."

Lu Chengfeng: "..."

Lin Xin: "..."

He Xiyuan smiled at the expressions of the two, and then turned around with everyone to see the newcomer wearing a white tailed dress, walking along the carpet laid on the grass to the front of the stage.

The newcomer looks good, only a few years older than He Xiyuan.When they exchanged rings in the dusk, He Xiyuan lowered his eyes and looked at the ring on his right ring finger.He turned the ring with the fingers of the other hand. The hardness and luster of the metal ring seemed to have a magical spell, which could protect him from outsiders peeping on his age and whether he had a partner.

His subtle movements fell into Lu Chengfeng's eyes.The wind in the summer evening is still a bit hot. He Xiyuan used an inhibitor, and the smell of green mango is strange but still very suitable for him.

Lu Chengfeng looked at the ring he was wearing on his finger, and couldn't help asking: "Does your ring have any meaning?"

He Xiyuan raised his hand and shook it in front of his face, saying, "It's for me, it looks good."

Lu Chengfeng: "..."

He Xiyuan: "I passed by and thought it looked good, so I bought it back."

Lu Chengfeng, who has a house full of ancestral diamond jewelry and two gold mines, almost blurted out: I have a lot, why don't I give you a better looking one?

But after all, he just smiled and said "It looks good", and his attitude was very pertinent.

At the reception after the wedding, Yan Xun walked up to Lu Chengfeng, clinked glasses with him teasingly, his eyes met silently, and asked casually, "Why did you bring him here?"

Lu Chengfeng: "By the way, it's no fun coming alone."

Yan Xun: "Is he interested?"

Lu Chengfeng looked in He Xiyuan's direction, smiled, and said nothing.

Lin Xin walked up to Lu Chengfeng and Yan Xun, and said, "Thank you senior for inviting us, and hello Senior Yan."

Yan Xun nodded, and was dismissed by the newcomer's guests.

Lin Xin wanted to chat with Lu Chengfeng a little more.For Lu Chengfeng, she was instinctively curious and longing for him.When she was studying, she and the lower grade students looked up to Lu Chengfeng, but it was just looking up.Apart from knowing that He Xiyuan, who was at the same table, seemed to have a crush on the senior Alpha senior, she had never had any contact with Lu Chengfeng himself.

But obviously Lu Chengfeng seemed cold, but he was not difficult to get along with, and even asked Lin Xin a few things about her and He Xiyuan's classmate.

No wonder He Xiyuan likes him.He is an Alpha that cannot be disliked, he was then, and he is even more so now.

I have something to say: I very much hope that everyone will give me more comments~ Writing suggestions are also okay, and the feeling of reading is okay, because most of the time I use stand-alone codewords, I will feel psychologically bottomless TT____TT
