midsummer night

On the way back to the campus from the lake, He Xiyuan walked beside Lu Chengfeng, feeling the sideways glances and whispering of many students around him.

Lu Chengfeng stared ahead, and said to He Xiyuan, "You sat there alone and ate so devotedly, and someone stood behind you for a long time, and you didn't realize it."

He Xiyuan didn't know how to answer, he looked at the other side's face, but Lu Chengfeng didn't turn his head.

When approaching the school gate, He Xiyuan walked to the side of the road and threw the leftover hamburger into the trash can, then trotted back to Alpha.Lu Chengfeng watched him run back, smiled noncommittally, and continued walking forward.

He Xiyuan followed behind him, half a step behind him, recalling the smile just now.Is the other party laughing at him?How can you smile so beautifully.

Before the summer rains, the weather is muggy, with dark clouds and scattered fruits under the shade of trees.

He Xiyuan followed Alpha all the way, his body was sweating a little, but the other party's clothes were dry, as if there was a cool breeze all over him.Apart from that smile, Lu Chengfeng never showed any other expressions.

After arriving at the school, several guards followed Lu Chengfeng to the lake, while He Xiyuan sat in the police room and waited for him to come back.

There was cold air in the room, and it was blowing towards him from an air outlet in a corner of the wall.But for some reason, He Xiyuan felt the heat in his body rise and couldn't go down.

After the middle-aged Alpha was taken away by the police, Lu Chengfeng returned to school with several senior students, and saw He Xiyuan still sitting in the police room.

Cheng Feng said to him: "You go back to class, and the guard will explain the situation to the teacher in your class."

He Xiyuan wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and whispered, "Okay, thank you senior."

Yan Xun, who had just sat on the middle-aged Alpha for 10 minutes, stood beside Lu Chengfeng, tilting his head to see He Xiyuan's expression: "You didn't see anything, did you? Go back slowly, kid."

On the way back, Yan Xun said to Lu Chengfeng who was beside him: "This low-grade Omega is a bit stupid. He really only cares about eating and doesn't hear anyone behind him. He doesn't run away when he finds someone. Why is he so stupid?"

Lu Chengfeng didn't answer.A small patch of rain came from outside the aisle, the air was humid, the afternoon light was covered by clouds, and fluorescent lights were turned on in the classroom.He thought of the mango tree in the yard outside his home, and the green fruits that had just grown were about to fall early again.

After the accident by the lake, He Xiyuan met Lu Chengfeng at the school's speech and commendation meeting.He heard the students in the class discussing a handsome Alpha senior in the senior class. Adjectives were strung together like a paintbrush: "good eyes", "long eyelashes", "tall", "long legs", "but it looks It's so cold", he sensed that it was Lu Chengfeng.

He Xiyuan fell in love with Lu Chengfeng when he first met him.The senior is tall and handsome, with deep features and a calm personality, even if Lu Chengfeng is a Beta, he will like it.

He found Lu Chengfeng's account VladC.L. on the school's forum, quietly flipped through the simple blog posts written by the other party, and listened to the music Lu Chengfeng liked to listen to.Most of Lu Chengfeng's collections are neo-classical and pure classical music.

He Xiyuan found out the album of each song and listened to it one by one. He felt that Lu Chengfeng had really good taste.

He occasionally left a message under the other party's blog post: "SecretGarden's most classic song has been misused everywhere, and sometimes I feel really regretful."

Vlad C.L. Reply: Yes.

With only two words, He Xiyuan could be happy all night. He listened to that song over and over again, and pulled down to refresh the screen, as if to see those two words flashing in front of his eyes repeatedly.

He also searched for the books and poems mentioned by Lu Chengfeng one by one. From "Flying Birds" to Calvino, he struggled to find the electronic version.Because there is no reader, I can only read on the computer screen, even if my eyes are dry, I am very happy.

He happened to like everything that Lu Chengfeng liked very much.He already liked poetry and music, and happened to like Lu Chengfeng.

But he didn't see Lu Chengfeng very often, the senior classroom was separated from his classroom by two floors and a corridor, and he didn't even have time to walk back and forth between classes.

When he was recruiting for the student union, he saw that Lu Chengfeng's title was the chairman of the student union, so he applied for a position in the activity organization department of the lower grades. Once or twice a week, he had the opportunity to go to Lu Chengfeng with documents to inquire about the arrangement and venue of the activities. Whenever he was free, Just go to the upper grade floor, and make up a random reason on the way.

Yan Xun and Lu Chengfeng are in the same class, and there is only a narrow aisle between the seats and Lu Chengfeng. They are often surrounded by a circle of tall senior Alpha and Beta, discussing homework or chatting between classes.

Sitting in the middle, Lu Chengfeng didn't talk much, his face and tone were calm, but once he spoke, the surroundings would quiet down.When he was young, he had the aura to let everyone listen to him.

When He Xiyuan came to deliver documents, he always walked in through the back door of the classroom.

If Lu Chengfeng was talking to the senior students around him, he would wait. Sometimes he still didn't get the chance until the class started, so he had to turn around and run back to the class downstairs.When there were few people, he would go directly to Lu Chengfeng, call him senior, and explain the arrangement of activities with his head down.

When He Xiyuan was talking, sometimes he looked at the documents, and sometimes he looked at Lu Chengfeng's hands and profile.The other party's finger joints are distinct, and the light-colored thin lips are closed when listening to him, and occasionally raise calm and deep eyes to look at him.

From the angle where He Xiyuan was standing, one could clearly see Lu Chengfeng's long and dense eyelashes, adding a subtle tenderness to his well-defined cheeks.

When they talked, Lu Chengfeng always sat and He Xiyuan stood. Alpha raised his head slightly, leaned back on the seat and looked at He Xiyuan.

He Xiyuan sometimes sensed that Lu Chengfeng actually saw that he didn't really have something to do, but just used the excuse of something to get close to him.

What would Lu Chengfeng think of him?He Xiyuan didn't know, and didn't care.Presumably he is not the only one who always wants to get close to Lu Chengfeng, from the lower grades to the upper grades, from students to faculty members, everyone wants to get close to him.

Sometimes He Xiyuan felt that some teachers were too accommodating and humble towards Lu Chengfeng, and later found that even the students whose parents were high-ranking Xiadao officials received far less attention from the teaching staff than Lu Chengfeng.

But at that time, He Xiyuan didn’t ask anyone about Lu Chengfeng’s family background. He only got a glimpse of Lu Chengfeng’s preferences through a small blog post window. From the short conversations and meetings between classes, he remembered the stationery brands and fountain pens used by the other party. The color of the body, the contours of the body, and the subtle and untouchable emotions that are increasing day by day.

He Xiyuan went to Lu Chengfeng many times, and Yan Xun also discovered that there was a junior Omega student who always came to Lu Chengfeng.On the surface, it is an office job, but apart from a few main officers of the student union, no freshman from a lower grade travels to a higher grade so frequently.

Sometimes Yan Xun would sit in the seat in the front row of Lu Chengfeng, sit across the chair, stare at the two people who were talking, and observe the origin of this Omega, and then remembered that it seemed to be approached by a strange middle-aged Alpha by the lake. Stupid underclassmen.

When He Xiyuan was in his teens, he really didn't look very conspicuous, and he didn't have the well-groomed appearance of other Omegas in the school.The school requires hairstyles, so in order to save the cost of haircuts at home, the barber always asks the barber to cut his hair very short, revealing a slightly fat face.

Although the school uniform he was wearing was new, the canvas shoes on his feet were old, the brand could not be identified, the quality looked suspicious, and there were signs of cracks on the uppers.

After swimming at the beach in summer, He Xiyuan's skin was tanned and peeled and turned into a wheat color.He has a round face, and his cheeks are slightly red when he speaks. He always avoids looking at Lu Chengfeng for more than 5 seconds, and never calls Lu Chengfeng's name, only "senior" or "Lu Xuechang".

Omega has no sense of existence at first glance, but its existence space is surprisingly ambiguous, like the humidity and heat and the harbinger of torrential rain before the arrival of midsummer.

When He Xiyuan was young, the pheromone was like a ripe orange-yellow citrus, sweet and milky. When he grew up, the pheromone seemed to increase the sweetness and pulp of the citrus, turning into a plump orange.He grew up in the south, and his childhood memory has the aroma of tropical flowers and fruits, which is clear and clean.

When he was in school, He Xiyuan wore a slightly worn-out pheromone suppression bracelet on his wrist, but he had no other watch or bracelet.But feel it up close, especially in an unair-conditioned classroom, and you can sense the smell of a certain sweet and sour citrus fruit.

He Xiyuan always kept a certain distance in front of Lu Chengfeng, but since Yan Xun could sense the vague pheromones, Lu Chengfeng must also be able to sense them.He carefully considered Lu Chengfeng's expression, the other's eyes were as calm as usual, neither curious nor repulsive.

Yan Xun narrowed his eyes, thinking that this low-grade Omega was a bit interesting.

One time when He Xiyuan came to the classroom to look for Lu Chengfeng, Yan Xun whistled and said, "Hey, Chengfeng, your junior Fat Orange is here."

Several Alpha students around looked sideways, and then let out a burst of laughter.

He Xiyuan was a little overwhelmed, but he called Yan Xun "Hi senior", put a plan on Lu Chengfeng's desk, and began to briefly talk about the planning of the art festival.

Yan Xun continued to ask He Xiyuan: "Why do you come to see Senior Lu every week? You ran up the third floor and ran back after class. Are you having fun?"

He Xiyuan replied cautiously in a low voice: "Fortunately, if you walk faster, you can get back to class."

Yan Xun continued to ask: "Seniors who are senior to you don't dare to come to find Chengfeng every day. Why do you run several times a week? Would you like to directly talk about your real purpose of approaching Senior Lu, and we will help you evaluate whether it is possible. "

Some people around smiled and looked sideways, with teasing and ambiguous expressions.

He Xiyuan blushed.He naturally knew what Yan Xun meant.But no matter what the answer was, he was wrong, so he quickly finished his business and left.

Lu Chengfeng was noncommittal to the teasing of the people around him. He had actively pursued Omega since the first day of school, but his attitude was polite and distant, as cold as pheromones.Whether the other party confesses or not, his attitude and eyes will not change in the slightest.

Yan Xun and his companions like to make jokes about the Omegas who pursue Lu Chengfeng, but no one will offend him.In the past, the companions seemed to wait and see Lu Chengfeng's attitude for a while, but for He Xiyuan, some people agreed from the very beginning that the lower grade Omega just added a little funny joke to their topic.
