Forever No.1

outside the library

"So you're not with Gao Shide?"

In the atrium, the girl squatted in front of Zhou Shuyi, raised her face and asked again.

"How could I be with him, don't guess."

The gaze that didn't dare to fall on the girl stopped at the ground in front of the toe of the shoe, and he responded with a helpless tone.

Jiang Yuxin clenched her fist and made a cheering gesture to the boy who had never been in a relationship before: "Don't deny it just because you dare not tell me the truth, what age is it, if you really like him, go after him bravely. No matter who you like, Zhengwen and I will support you."

"Yuxin."

Unlike the snarky ones, Fang Zhengwen looked at the drooping face and the reddening eye sockets, and tugged on the girl's sleeve to make her change the subject.

"..."

Zhou Shuyi bit his lips, as if he would reveal his hidden feelings at any second, shed tears, and impulsively said to the girl who had fallen in love with someone else...

I like you!

Jiang Yuxin!The person I like has always been you!

From a distance, Gao Shide stood in front of the white pillar, watching the man's emotions about to get out of control, unable to continue to be a calm bystander.So he walked between the three who were talking, and covered Zhou Shuyi's eyes with his left hand, covering his tears that were about to burst.

"We still have something to do, let's go first."

After dropping these words, he grabbed Zhou Shuyi's arm, picked up the backpack beside him, ignored the surprised eyes of the other two, and left the atrium outside the library.

***

In the community office, the pot on the induction cooker is boiling with a spicy pot bottom with the aroma of chili and prickly ash, and the cooked ingredients are rolling in the bubbling noodle soup.

Zhou Shuyi looked at the other person who put the sliced ​​meat into the pot, and asked, "How do you know what I like to eat?"

Gao Shide picked up a spoon and put a piece of tender duck blood into the other party's disposable bowl, and said, "From elementary school to now, what should I know? I should know what I shouldn't."

The tongue-twister answer surprised the listeners, who thought that this person, like him, only regarded the other party as a competitor, but never cared about anything other than the competition.

"Just now...thank you..." Zhou Shuyi put down the cup of Coke, leaned his body against the back of the chair, and smiled wryly: "If you didn't grab me and leave, I'm afraid I would say something that I regret. She has been like this since before , a silly elder sister, her nerves are thicker than a submarine cable, and she is often out of control, and she is very domineering. Only Zheng Wen can stand her, and those two people together... are a perfect match..."

Gao Shide didn't answer the conversation, but just quietly listened to the other party talk about the girl he had been in love with for many years, and quietly put the cooked food into his bowl.

After talking to himself for a while, the person who spoke seemed to feel that the atmosphere was too awkward. After taking a breath and straightening his back, he picked up his chopsticks and looked at the red hot pot, and spoke.

"Are the shrimp ready?"

"Okay." Gao Shide picked up the shrimp and peeled off the shell, then put it on the other party's plate, looked at his face, and asked tentatively, "You don't seem to care so much about Jiang Yuxin."

"Seems to be."

People who like to eat shrimp but hate getting their fingers dirty, pick up the shrimp meat on the paper plate with chopsticks and put it in their mouths to chew.

Gao Shide glanced at Zhou Shuyi's expression, stepped back from the chair, got up and walked to the sink in the social office, washed off the greasy and seafood smell on his fingertips, took out a few pieces of toilet paper to wipe his hands, and said, "Actually, let you The sad thing is not the broken love, but not even the chance to fight for it, and I can only give up before the game starts.”

The person eating the shrimp wrinkled his nose and replied, "Maybe! It's over anyway, I just need to know that she is with the person I like."

Obviously it is fresh and sweet shrimp meat, but it tastes bitter to the taste buds who can distinguish the taste, so I took the initiative to start a new topic and asked the person who sat back at the table and ate spicy pot with me.

"What about you? If the person you like likes someone else, what would you do?"

Pretending to think in distress for a while, then leaned his body towards the other party, and gave the answer with a wicked smile.

"I'm going to destroy it and get in."

"real or fake?"

After Zhou Shuyi heard the answer, his eyes widened in fright.I didn't expect this guy to be so black-bellied, so black-bellied that he would not only destroy other people's relationships, but also sneak in.

"Kidding."

Looking at the other party's reaction, Gao Shide said something half-true, then pulled back his body that was leaning to the side, and continued to fish out the cooked shrimp from the pot, peel off the shell, and arrange them neatly on Zhou Shuyi's plate.In fact, if he could, he really wanted to strip himself naked and show Zhou Shuyi, but how dare he?He couldn't bear the consequences of the eventuality, finally he finally got a little closer to him this time...

After having a full meal, the two of them packed up the induction cooker and tableware, and left the club office to go to the afternoon class.

After walking a few steps, Zhou Shuyi bent over and pressed his stomach with his hands, stopped walking with a pale face, and said weakly: "Your afternoon class, can I, a book boy, ask for a leave?"

The other person didn't answer, just frowned and grabbed Zhou Shuyi's wrist, walking in the opposite direction.

"Where are you going? The classroom is at the back, oh... wait, walk slowly, walk slowly..."

The painful voice echoed in the corridor outside the agency office as the figure gradually receded.

health centre

"What do college students now have in their heads?"

The man put his hands in the pockets of the white doctor's robe, looked at the person sitting on the hospital bed with idiot eyes, and then turned his head to mock Gao Shide.

"If you want him to die, cook a spicy pot for him every day!"

"..."

The person who was scolded lowered his head in remorse, and the person who had a stomachache from eating too spicy food couldn't help but speak.

"I am the one who eats it, what are you scolding him for?"

The protective tone was mixed with a gentleness that he didn't even notice, which made Gao Shide look up in surprise and look at Zhou Shuyi's side face.

The man threw the folder of medical records on Zhou Shuyi's chest, put his hands on his chest and continued to curse:

"In the United States, a zero-tolerance policy is adopted for drunk driving accidents, and there is even a 'continuous sitting system'. If a drunk driver causes death or injury, even the bar owner will face prosecution for failing to stop customers from drinking and driving. He clearly knows that you have a bad stomach. Avoiding irritating food, but still cooking spicy pot for you, shouldn’t you be scolded?”

"Speak harshly to patients, are you really the school doctor?"

Suspicious eyes moved down to the identification card hanging on the other party's chest, and the three words printed on it---Pei Shouyi.

"This pack of medicine can only relieve pain temporarily, remember to see a doctor."

He took out stomach medicine and prescription paper from his pocket and handed them to Zhou Shuyi, but Gao Shide took them away one step earlier. Watching the interaction between the two, Pei Shouyi bent down and raised the corners of his mouth, and put his face towards the person suffering from stomach pain, coldly explain.

"Remember to have a light diet and less oil this week. If you really want to die, I won't stop you."

After finishing speaking, he straightened his body, squinted at the person sitting by the hospital bed, and asked, "Are you sure it's this idiot?"

Gao Shide glared at the other party, got up and walked to the water dispenser, filled a cup of warm water in a paper cup, returned to the side of the hospital bed, tore open the medicine bag, poured the stomach medicine in the palm of his hand, and handed it to the patient together with the warm water.

"Take the medicine, lie down and rest."

"Ah."

Zhou Shuyi took the paper cup, mixed it with warm water, swallowed the pain-relieving pills, and lay down slowly with his hands on his stomach.

"Go to sleep!"

Gao Shi pulled up the thin quilt from the health center and covered Zhou Shuyi's chest until the person on the bed fell asleep under the influence of the medicine and breathed evenly, then he signaled with his eyes to the school doctor in white gown to go out with him.

Pei Shouyi, who left late, drew the curtain for privacy protection, so that the unwell students could have a space to sleep soundly, then walked behind the desk, sat on a chair and looked at the boy who had a similar outline to himself.

"What are you afraid of? If you like it, tell him directly."

"He won't like me."

"don't know."

The perplexity on the man's face seemed to be more incomprehensible than the original Latin text of [-] bones that he had to recite in the medical department.

Gao Shide raised a wry smile and said, "You are emotionally impaired, so it's impossible for you to understand." "..."

Between the brows, tightly wrinkled.

There is also a person in the memory, showing the same expression.

However, there were only a few ripples in the rarely fluctuating emotions, and soon, with the counterattack of the poisonous tongue, it became flat into the surface of a lake without water marks.

"Since he doesn't like you, just give up! If you continue to pester him, you will be self-torturing." Since you know there will be no results, why hesitate?

Why use the identity of a friend to stay beside the other party in pain?

Gao Shide sighed, and replied: "Because besides liking him, he is still my angel. Without him, I would not be who I am now. I met him when I was in Xiaowu, and my parents divorced at that time. Even more sad mother, I can only pretend to be strong..." 'Hey!What’s wrong with you?Are you hurt?How are you? '

Hiding on the campus after school, he sat on the stairs with his knees hugged and wept. He raised his head because of a strange voice, and a boy in a black shirt stood in front of him with his head tilted, looking at him curiously.

'Why are you crying? '

'My dad doesn't want me and my mom anymore. '

"But you still have a mother, unlike my mother... who has gone to be an angel..." The boy patted him on the shoulder and said comforting words like a little adult.

'Otherwise, it's fine, I'll give you my father, anyway, it's not good for me to be with him. '

'How can anyone give their father to others casually. '

'That's right, otherwise I will give myself to you, come to me if you have any unhappy things, I will rely on you! '

That day, he remembered a person's name.

Class [-] of the fifth year of Sanqiao Elementary School, Zhou Shuyi.

So I asked my mother to let me transfer to the elementary school with angels. However, when I saw the boy again, the other party didn’t remember the meeting that day? Didn’t remember my name? Didn’t remember to hand him the handkerchief to wipe his tears, or Remember the promise you made once——Come to me if you have any unhappy things, and I will rely on you.

In the boy's eyes, he is just an ordinary transfer student; and he is the "monitor" who has to guide the transfer students to know the campus out of responsibility, and has to inform the progress of the course and what assignments need to be handed in.

In class, their seats were separated by three aisles; after class, the boy happily went to the playground to play ball with his friends; after school, Zhou Shuyi was either picked up by the driver to take piano lessons, or went with Fang Zhengwen from the next class Find a certain elder sister who is studying in the middle school.

"Gao Shide" never existed in the boy's world. It was not until the final exam because of a one-point difference in the math test paper that he became No.1 on the list. The boy standing under the red list turned his head to look at himself for the first time. .

'You are Gao Shide? '

'right. '

'hateful!I remember you! '

After the boy dropped this sentence, he wiped his tears and ran away crying.

So, he found a way to be noticed by the opponent, which is to get the No.1 result in the competition.

Only in this way can those beautiful eyes see me, and occasionally say a few words to him, even if those words are not "Damn! Why did I lose to you again?", or "Gao Shide, I hate you! Most importantly I hate you the most!"...

So I am excellent in both homework and various competitions, and I have to thank Zhou Shuyi, otherwise, according to my personality, I don't care if I am No.1.

"You can do it, masochist."

With a straight face, Pei Shouyi held the brown mug with a corner missing, and made a mocking conclusion expressionlessly.

"I just want to be by his side as a friend until graduation."

The man suddenly remembered something, nodded and continued, "That's right, anyway, you're going to America with your aunt after graduation, so it's better not to do anything wrong."

"If it wasn't for his broken love, I wouldn't even have the chance to be friends." A bitter smile stained the corner of Gao Shide's mouth.

"I think you are not a tiger, but a white crane."

"white crane?"

"Repaying your kindness, idiot, spending time with the person you like through the period of broken love, what is it if it's not Baihe's repaying your kindness?"

Gao Shide looked at the handsome face of the other party, showing an expression that you really don't understand. He lowered his eyes and noticed the mug on the table. Just as he reached out to take the mug away, the man held the mug with his hand, and his eyes were wary. watch.

"The cup is chipped, why don't you replace it with a new one? Be careful not to cut your mouth."

Pei Shou glanced at the mug with a missing corner, quickly opened the drawer, put the mug in, and closed it hard.

"It has nothing to do with you, go to class quickly."

Then he stood up, walked around the desk, put his hands on Gao Shide's shoulders, and half-forced him out of the health center.

Behind the curtain separating the private space, the person who had woken up sat on the hospital bed, looked at the two people who walked out of the health care center through the gap, and remembered the conversation between himself and Gao Shide...

'Really, why do I tell you so much, you don't understand. '

'I know. '

'Tell me quickly, who is the person you like? '

'Prefer not to say. '

'Why, you already know my secret, and I want to know yours too. ''For you, I don't want to say. '

"Could it be that the person he likes is not Shi Zheyu, but..."

Those who thought they had guessed the answer couldn't help but widen their eyes, then sighed and murmured.

"It turns out that we are all the same. We fall in love with people who don't like us."

Classroom of Finance Department

The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the students who finished the last class stepped out of the classroom one after another.

Zhou Shuyi lowered his head to pack his things, took the painkillers given by the bully school doctor and slept in the health center, his stomach pain improved a lot.

"Book Yi."

The person whose name was called raised his head reflexively, and saw Fang Zhengwen standing in front of the aisle.

"Politics?"

A look of astonishment flashed across his face. The escape during this period made the two people who had nothing to talk about become a little rusty.

"Shuyi, you... seem to be very busy recently..."

"It's very busy, what's the matter?"

Put the heavy books in the backpack and zip it up, and just swing the straps over the shoulders to get out of the awkward place.However, Fang Zhengwen was clearly prepared, walked straight to the side of the seat, and asked.

"Do you like Yuxin?"

This sentence has been hesitating in his mind for a long time, especially after Zhou Shuyi came across Jiang Yuxin's confession to him, the Audio-Technica who often meet for dinner is always missing this person.

Zhou Shuyi let go of his fingers on the strap, turned around and looked at his friends who grew up together, and said seriously: "If I answer 'Yes, I like Yuxin', what are you going to do? Do you reject her confession? Or Give her to me?"

"impossible!"

It is rare for a gentle and gentle person to raise his voice. After saying this, he was also frightened by his own reaction, so he slowed down and said guiltily.

"Shuyi, I don't want to lose you as a friend, but I want to give up Yuxin... Sorry, I can't do it."

"That's right! For the person you like, you have to be hard, and no one can let it." Zhou Shuyi clenched his fist, punched his buddies in the chest, and smiled with relief: "I feel relieved when I see your reaction. Now, from now on, that man-in-law will be handed over to you for protection."

"So you don't like Yuxin?"

Looking at each other in confusion, could it be... he misunderstood?

"I like you two. Don't forget, we are the eternal iron triangle." Zhou Shuyi lowered his eyes, not letting his friends see the sadness in his eyes, put his backpack on the table, walked to Fang Zhengwen's side, and hooked Grabbing his neck, he said, "Yu Xin's happiness is in your hands. If she cries, I will definitely beat you up even if she is a brother."

Fang Zhengwen smiled, and punched the opponent's chest, promising: "Don't worry! You won't have this chance."

"But you are really mean! Even the confession was preempted by the girl, are you a man?" Zhou Shuyi smiled and complained, then changed his tone, looked at the other party and said, "I really envy you, the person I like also happens to like you I don't know when my fate will appear."

"It will show up, I promise."

"It's best if you can guarantee it!" Withdrew the arm hooked around the neck of the friend, walked to the desk, picked up the backpack and threw it behind his back, and proposed: "Let's go! Let's eat spicy pot!"

"Still eating? You just went to the health center to lie down for a class, and you didn't learn your lesson? You are not allowed to eat."

"You are really more and more like Yuxin, nagging mother-in-law and mother-in-law."

Fang Zhengwen smiled and put his hands on the shoulders of his best friend, ignoring his distasteful tone, and said as he walked out of the classroom: "Only eat porridge and side dishes, and don't talk about the rest."

"Depend on!"

The sound of protest echoed in the corridor outside the classroom, and the two walking side by side were the same as before, talking and laughing at each other.

***

Two weeks later, in front of the teaching building

After nightfall, the campus has a creepy atmosphere. Familiar classrooms and floors lack lighting, which inexplicably makes people shiver. Will there be scary things coming out of people's toilets?

The host who held the test of courage held a microphone and explained the rules of the game to the students gathered in the open space: "Thank you for participating in the old night tour jointly organized by the association. The staff report for duty and give the mobile phone to the staff for safekeeping, as long as you pass the checkpoint successfully, you can get a beautiful gift, let us create beautiful memories before graduation together!"

"Wow!"

The students applauded and screamed, looking forward to the next level-breaking activities.

"At present, ten groups of senior sisters have succeeded. Who will be the next group? Please raise your hands up high for me to see."

"..."

Gao Shide and Zhou Shuyi looked at each other, rolled their eyes and raised their right hands. The two who hadn't planned to participate, were caught by Liu Bingwei, who was one of the organizers, so they had no choice but to take the team number plates.

"Okay, both of you, please walk to my right. I wish you all the seven unbelievable customs clearance stamps on the campus, and enjoy the eerie night."

The host deliberately exaggerated the situation of the test of courage, and even showed a weird smile────

"Damn it, when did the school become so scary..."

There were many demons and ghosts in the dark corridor, and Zhou Shuyi muttered to himself as he walked.

He was actually very afraid of ghosts, but he didn't want to show weakness in front of Gao Shide, so he bit the bullet and participated, and even had to keep a distance from the other party, lest his fear be discovered.

Suddenly, something touched his finger, Zhou Shuyi immediately lowered his head, but saw the little finger hooked by Gao Shide's index finger.

"You? What are you doing, you?"

"I'm afraid of ghosts."

In the frighteningly dark corridor, the other party's expression could not be seen, only a familiar voice could be heard speaking plainly.

"What? You're afraid of ghosts? You're so tall."

He deliberately made fun of a few words, then took the initiative to hold Gao Shide's hand, and pretended to speak grandly.

"Forget it, forget it, since you will be afraid, the agreement just now that you will use the test of courage to PK will not count. Anyway, if I win, I won't win by force. Don't worry, just go with me, and I promise to let you gather All the customs clearance stamps."

"Ah."

Nodding his head, he couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth when he looked at the man who was obviously scared but still brave.

From the right hand that was firmly held, there was another person's body temperature, as well as the sound of a rapid heartbeat.

"You go ahead."

The person who just finished saying "Don't worry" a few seconds ago grabbed Gao Shide's wrist and pushed him to the front of him, not forgetting to add "Don't be afraid of me being behind".

At the other end of the corridor, Shi Zheyu, who also came to participate in the old night tour, looked at the backs of the two people, and stopped to catch up...

"Book Yi!"

A group of black shadows sneaked up from behind unexpectedly, mistook him for Zhou Shuyi, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Depend on!"

Shi Zheyu uttered obscenities on the spot, turned around, and was about to beat the mentally handicapped man who scared him to death, but after seeing clearly who the other party was, both of them were puzzled.

"why you?"

Liu Bingwei stared in astonishment at Shi Zheyu, whom he had misidentified, and the latter was also surprised that Shi Zheyu appeared here.

"Sorry, I thought you were Shuyi."

Withdrawing the hand that was clapping on the shoulder, and saying the words of apology, but just stepped on someone's emotional mine, and the dissatisfaction that had been suppressed for a long time exploded in an instant.

Shi Zheyu glared at the person standing in front of him, and roared out what he kept in his heart: "Zhou Shuyi, Zhou Shuyi, why do you all only care about Zhou Shuyi?"

"what happened to you?"

"Don't worry about it."

He reached out his hand to pat the other person's shoulder, but was swung away forcefully.

Suddenly, a white object flew past Liu Bingwei's back quickly. Those who turned their backs to it didn't notice it, but those who could see it screamed in fright.

"what!"

"Be careful!" Liu Bingwei quickly hugged the person who was scared and fell backwards, frowning: "Since you are so scared, why are you still here?"

"No...you don't need to..."

The trembling lips couldn't say the fourth word "don't worry about you", and his chest was pressed tightly to convey his fear through the violent heartbeat.

Liu Bingwei looked down at Shi Zheyu's hair, and smelled the faint scent of shampoo from the other person's body. The idea of ​​protecting this person quietly grew in his heart, so he proposed.

"Do you want to form a team with me? Let's break through the level together. It is said that the prizes this time are very rich. It would be a pity if we didn't get them."

Seeing that the other party did not refuse, Liu Bingwei smiled and continued to lobby.

"I know you want to say 'don't worry about it' again, but just be patient and let me 'care' for 10 minutes, and I promise to take you through the level successfully."

Shi Zheyu pushed it away, raised his face and said proudly: "I promise, but you have to give me your prize."

"Deal! Give me your hand, and we will collect the seals of success together." Spreading his palm upwards, he waited for another person's reply.

"make a deal."

Shi Zheyu hesitated for a while, took the initiative to hold Liu Bingwei's hand, forgot the fear just now, and walked into the dark corridor with his temporary teammates.
