Forever No.1

In order to find the clues to pass the level and the stamps that represent the success of the level, I had to take the game card and walk into the health center of the No. 1 horror index in the seven wonders of the campus? And the toilet.

Zhou Shuyi was rummaging through the iron cabinet where the gauze and medicines were placed in the faint light, his voice trembling: "Let's give up and go directly to the next level."

Standing in front of the bookcase, Gao Shide searched for clues that might be hidden between the books, and said, "No, if you fail here, you can't get the clearance stamp for the next level."

Snapped!

As soon as he finished speaking, the only lighting in the room suddenly tripped, and with a bang, the stainless steel door of the health center was slammed shut.

"what!"

Zhou Shuyi let out a scream, and was so frightened that he went straight to the door and grabbed the doorknob vigorously, trying to open the door from the inside, but fell back because of too much force, and just fell into Gao Shide's arms.

The person who happened to come over to observe the movement, looked at the metal products that were pulled down and the boy who fell into his arms, with some unknown meaning in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Good job, Zhou Shuyi."

"..."

The perpetrator stared at the doorknob that he had pulled down, and was stunned.

After a few minutes───

"Hey! Is there anyone? Is there anyone outside?"

Zhou Shuyi stood in front of the stainless steel door, slapped the door and yelled outside, hoping to attract the attention of other participants, so that someone would come to save them who were locked in the health center.

Indoors, Gao Shide was sitting on a chair with his feet crossed, crossing his arms and looking at the futile people. The table was still lit with spare candles found in the cabinet. The orange candlelight made the place full of weird atmosphere less scary.

"Aren't you tired after shouting for so long? Come and drink some water."

He unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and held it up to Zhou Shuyi who had been yelling for more than ten minutes. The latter kicked the metal door, turned his head and walked to the table, took away the plastic bottle that the other party was holding, and poured it a few times. After taking a sip of mineral water, he said angrily.

"It's better than doing nothing and just waiting to die. Damn it! What kind of bars are you installing? What if there is a fire? Isn't this your territory? Think of a way."

The fear of being locked in the health care center suddenly, and after seeing another person find candles and mineral water from the cabinet?

"What can I do? Before the game started, we handed over our mobile phones to the staff, how can we ask for help?" Gao Shide shrugged his shoulders and said easily: "Anyway, there will be campus police patrolling, even if they are not found by the campus police, the big deal is here Get a good night's sleep, and Pei Shouyi will come and open the door after work tomorrow."

"..."

Zhou Shuyi glared at the guy who was doing nothing, put the cap on the bottle and put the PET bottle on the table, and continued to look for a way to leave the room by the candlelight.

"Hey! There is a computer! The school has WIFI, and you can connect to the communication software if you have the Internet, so you can call Zheng Wen to come to us."

Suddenly found the laptop left in the health center on the desk of the school doctor, Zhou Shuyi excitedly opened the chair and sat in front of the table, lifted the top cover of the laptop and pressed the power button, just when he thought he could call for help , but a prompt to enter a password pops up on the screen.

"Damn! Need a password..."

The excitement was suddenly discouraged, and I could only pat the top cover of the laptop in frustration, looking at another person who was also trapped.

goo goo goo...

The stomach that hadn't eaten since noon made a protesting sound in the space of only two people.

"hungry?"

"Very hungry." Zhou Shuyi looked at the questioner awkwardly and nodded. "Shouyi should have some food, you hold on."

As Gao Shide said, he got up and went to the iron cabinet where the medicines were placed. Sure enough, he found the mountaineering stove and environmental protection tableware from the cabinet below. Instant noodles, then sit back at the table, put the pot on the portable gas stove, put the noodles?

Zhou Shuyi pulled up a chair and sat across the table from Gao Shide, looking at the expression on the other side who was concentrating on cooking noodles, he asked curiously: "You even know where the instant noodles are hidden, are you familiar with that unscrupulous school doctor? Wait a minute , could it be that the school doctor is the one you have a crush on?"

Looking at the astonished eyes of the other party, the person who started the topic was more sure of this guess, but he didn't realize that there was a slight concern in his tone of voice.

"I didn't—"

As soon as he opened his mouth to say two words, he was interrupted by the person who ignited the spirit of gossip.

"Hey, you already know that I like Jiang Yuxin, so what does it matter if I know the person you have a crush on. Don't worry, I will keep it secret for you, so tell me, how long have you liked him?"

"It's been a long time, but..." The misunderstood person was a little impatient, and simply followed the other person's words to tell the secret hidden in his heart: "I like you."

"Oh, then I'm relieved." Zhou Shuyi nodded with an understanding expression, then widened his eyes and looked at the other party in surprise: "Huh? You like me? How is it possible?"

"Yeah, how is it possible..."

Gao Shide smiled desolately, even though it was an answer he understood long ago, when he heard it from this person, the place where his heart beat still hurt.

"So you're joking?"

"Of course it's a joke, otherwise? Who told you to make me and Pei Shouyi a pair." "Stingy, don't say it if you don't say it, hmph."

After confirming that the other party was indeed joking, the startled person put away his astonished expression, propped his elbows on the table, and stared at the steaming hot noodle soup with his cheek.

"Be patient, wait for the water to boil before eating."

"Ah."

A few minutes later, the aroma of instant noodles filled the dimly lit space.

The health care center where you were so scared just now that you wanted to run away, because of the aroma of the food? Because of the warmth of the fire, and because of the company around you, people who are afraid of the dark and ghosts no longer fear.

"Eat it!"

Holding the handle of the pot, Gao Shide poured the cooked noodles and hot soup into a bowl, and pushed the bowl in front of Zhou Shuyi. The hungry man immediately picked up the instant noodles with chopsticks and put them in his mouth, tasting the food he finally ate.

Zhou Shuyi was chewing his mouthful of noodles, but he saw the people who had been busy for a long time with their necks up, pouring mineral water one mouthful after another, so he stopped his chopsticks and asked, "What about you?"

"I'm not hungry, just eat."

"Isn't the only package of instant noodles you cooked just now?"

"You are hungry, eat quickly."

The person who squinted to show that he was changing the subject stood up with a bowl of instant noodles in one hand, pulled up a chair with the other hand, sat down beside Gao Shide, put the bowl in front of him, and handed out the Chopsticks.

"eat together."

"It's better for one to be well fed than to be underfed for both."

"Eating for two is more cost-effective than starving to death alone. Besides, if you are friends, you must share the blessings and share the hardships."

"friend……"

Gao Shide looked at Zhou Shuyi's face, and muttered these two words repeatedly.

Yes, since the "lover" relationship is doomed to fail, becoming his "friend" is his only remaining option.

"Don't forget it."

People with high self-esteem think that the other party's silence means that they don't want to be friends with him, so they curl their lips and retract their hands holding chopsticks.

"I want."

Holding Zhou Shuyi's wrist, he moved the chair he had just pulled closer to him, and then pushed the bowl containing instant noodles between the two of them.

Zhou Shuyi happily bent his mouth, pointed at Gao Shide's face with his chopsticks, and said, "Let's say it first, even if we are friends, healthy competition is necessary, and I will not lose to you all the time."

"No, you will always lose to me, because I won't give you a chance to win." There was uncompromising persistence in the gentle smile.

Because only by keeping No.1 forever, I exist in your eyes. This is the way to find that you can notice me in front of the grade list in the fifth grade of primary school.So I want to keep winning and always occupy this most special position.

"Hmph! Let's guess the punch! Whoever wins wins."

Zhou Shuyi snorted, clenched his fist and looked at the other party provocatively.

"OK!"

Gao Shide raised the corner of his mouth, shook his right hand, and punched out.

In the first round, rock VS scissors, Gao Shide wins.

"Tsk, come again."

Handing the chopsticks to the other party unhappily, watching Gao Shide swallow a big mouthful of instant noodles, and then continue to PK.

In the second game, scissors VS rock, Zhou Shuyi won.

In the third game, scissors VS cloth, Gao Shide wins.

In the fourth round, rock VS scissors, Gao Shide won.

In the fifth game, Stone VS Stone, a tie.

In the sixth game, cloth VS cloth, a tie.

In the seventh game, scissors VS scissors, another tie...

In the eighth game, Shitou VS Shitou, oh shit and a tie...

In the ninth round, Shitou VS Shitou, I was so annoyed why it was still a tie...

In the tenth round, Stone VS Cloth, Zhou Shuyi won.

"what!"

After five consecutive draws, the winner finally laughed happily, snatched the chopsticks from the bowl, and put a big mouthful of noodles into his mouth.

Zhou Shuyi was eating instant noodles that were no longer so hot, looking at his handsome face under the candlelight, he had never looked at this person's face carefully before, no wonder he always received several times more from his female classmates than himself on Valentine's Day. double the chocolate.

Handsome? Gentle? Can take care of people...

Who is that person who can be secretly in love with such a perfect Gao Shide?

***

Entering the health care center in the early morning at midnight, all the candles used for lighting have been burned out, and the corridors both inside and outside are completely dark.

"Can you sleep?"

The person who was afraid of the dark looked at the hospital beds on the left and right, swallowed, and asked tentatively.

"I..." The person who was busy making the bed stopped his movements, and in order not to expose the other party's fear of sleeping alone, he changed his words and replied, "I'm so scared that I can't sleep."

"You're so timid, push the bed over and I'll chat with you."

Zhou Shuyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and offered to merge the two beds together with Gao Shide, so the two sat on the bed, chatting with each other.

"You don't want to tell me who your crush is, you can always talk about what kind of person he is? For example, personality? Appearance, or hobbies or something."

"Your curiosity is too strong!"

"If you are a friend, tell me quickly."

"he……"

Unable to resist the other party's urging, he had no choice but to turn his head and look at the person sitting on the left, describing his crush...

"Very cute, although some people think he is arrogant? Arrogant and narcissistic, but in my eyes, he is cute."

The moonlight shone through the iron windows and curtains and fell on Zhou Shuyi's face. Although only a vague outline could be seen under such brightness, every expression of this person? Every reaction has been deeply imprinted on Zhou Shuyi's face for more than ten years. his mind.

"It really is true love to be able to regard shortcomings as strengths."

"Maybe." Gao Shide pursed his lips and smiled, removed his eyes that hid too many secrets, turned his head to look at the health center shrouded in darkness, and continued: "Although he is very arrogant? Very stubborn, but he is very good to friends , I would rather wrong myself than protect my friends."

"Speaking loyalty is still an advantage." Hearing that the person valued friends as much as himself, Zhou Shuyi nodded and asked, "So you really don't intend to confess to the other party?"

"I don't want to destroy the friendship that was so hard to build."

A hesitant sigh passed into the other person's ear, and he spoke lightly.

"The same people who have fallen into the world, I understand." Zhou Shuyi patted Gao Shide's shoulder sleepily, stretched the quilt and lay on the bed, and persuaded those who were in the same position as him: "I have let go, but you are still stuck in the same position." Inside, if you want to complain, come to me, I will listen to you and keep it secret for you."

'Come to me if you have any unhappy things, I will rely on you. '

Gao Shide looked at the person lying on the left side, and remembered what the angel boy had said to him when they first met.

"But having said that, you are so outstanding, it's that person's luck to be secretly in love with you." "It's really rare, this is the first time you have praised me."

Zhou Shuyi bent his elbows, put his arms on the back of his head, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "It's just a matter of fact."

The electronic clock on the desk beat the number representing the time with the conversation between the two of them. Even though they talked so much and talked about so many things that they had never talked about before, Zhou Shuyi still couldn't fall asleep due to the strange environment.

"Gao Shide, do me a favor and sing to me."

At 52:[-], the person who tossed and turned but couldn't sleep couldn't help making a request.

"Sing?" Gao Shide was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect to be asked like this.

"I'm used to listening to music before going to bed, hurry up."

"But I..."

"Please."

These two words are like a spell in a fairy tale, so Gao Shide couldn't refuse it cruelly. Just as he was thinking about which song would be more suitable to lull people to sleep, a certain melody automatically emerged in his mind.

One, he once stood outside the piano room, listening to Zhou Shuyi humming...

'The hot summer because of you, love hides in you.

I've been going around in circles, it's very ambiguous whether to say it or not, I really want you to know that you don't have to wait until tomorrow.

If you also want to, take advantage of this rain to gently break up a certain habit, making the world feel more than just peace of mind.

A call that never had, awaken my being...' (Note 1)

────

"Go on, it sounds great."

Turning around to face the person on the right at some point, he scratched Gao Shide's arm with his fingers, urging him.

"This is the second time you have complimented me."

"Sing quickly, I will praise you for a third time if you sing well."

"Okay." Gao Shide curled his lips and smiled.

The deep voice drove away the fear of the unfamiliar environment. Zhou Shuyi lay sideways on the bed, breathing evenly. He always hated people who touched him, but he didn't retract the fingertips on his arms.

At 37:[-], after confirming that the other party was fully asleep, he quietly withdrew the touched arm, moved his body, got up and got off the bed, then walked to the skull of the mannequin in the corner, and took out the paper with the WIFI password written on it. Tiao sat back behind the desk where the laptop was placed, turned on the power and entered the password, and after connecting to the Internet, he entered the chat room of the communication software and sent a message.

In front of the teaching building

In the open space where the old night tour was held, there were contestants who successfully broke through and won prizes, and students who had fun even though they didn't succeed.

The host held the microphone and announced the group that cleared the customs the fastest: "Let us use warm applause and screams, congratulations to the champion of this test of courage, Shi Zheyu! Liu Bingwei! Congratulations!"

There was thunderous applause and high-decibel screams in front of the teaching building, congratulating the two students who won the biggest award.

"Where's Shuyi? Has any of you seen Zhou Shuyi?"

Jiang Yuxin, one of the masters, was still wearing a white cloth dressed as a female ghost, and her face was also painted with scary special effects makeup. She couldn't find Zhou Shuyi, so she grabbed a few people standing nearby and asked.

"No."

"do not know."

However, no one saw Zhou Shuyi, neither Fang Zhengwen nor the juniors serving as staff.Even Shi Zheyu, who just got the prize from the host, walked up to Jiang Yuxin and said.

"Not only Zhou Shuyi, but even Gao Shide didn't know where he went."

"What? Both of them are missing? Zhengwen, accompany me to set up checkpoints and look for each place again."

"it is good."

Fang Zhengwen took Jiang Yuxin's hand, and was about to go back to the building to find someone, when he saw the host walking over with his mobile phone in his hand, and waved his hand to stop them.

"Don't worry! Shide sent a message just now, saying that he and Zhou Shuyi felt bored and went home first, and asked me to keep their mobile phones for them, saying that they would pick them up at the office after class tomorrow."

"Let me take a look."

Shi Zheyu snatched the host's mobile phone, clicked on the message sent to the chat room, and it was exactly the same as what was conveyed.

"It's Zhou Shuyi again."

Frustrated, he returned the phone to the host, and the prize he had received excitedly just now was thrown on the ground angrily, and he turned and left with red eyes.

"Hey! Shi Zheyu!"

Liu Bingwei didn't understand why the person who was cheering happily a few seconds ago suddenly lost his temper, so he had to pick up the prize that was thrown on the ground, and chased after him calling the other party's name.

"I agreed to give you the prize, don't you want it?"

"Go away."

In the open space, Jiang Yuxin asked Fang Zhengwen who was standing beside him with his eyes, but Fang Zhengwen shook his head, expressing that he didn't know what happened to those two people.

health centre

Gao Shide closed the laptop after sending the message, and returned to the two iron beds that were joined together.

In fact, what happened tonight was all planned by him. Pei Shouyi, who hates his private domain being invaded, how could he lend the health center to let the club hold a test of courage?So the health care center is not a checkpoint in the game. The seemingly unexpected power outage is also the result of him pulling down the main power switch. Even the locked stainless steel door, he used a screwdriver to remove the inner and outer door handles beforehand.

Everything is just to create a chance to be alone with Zhou Shuyi before graduation.

"Sorry for scaring you all night."

Lie on one side of the bed with the quilt pulled aside, hold another person's head as a pillow in his arm, and look at that person's sleeping face.

"I really want to just look at you like this... I really want time to stop at this night... I really want to get closer to you... just a little bit..."

The words hidden in the bottom of my heart are like the sunset flowers in "The Tale of Genji", which can only bloom quietly in the late night and early morning when no one notices them, and then quietly return to the original hiding place before the first light of the morning sun. .

So he just looked at the person he was secretly in love with, until the sleepiness caused him to fall into a deep sleep, and he entered the dreamland where that person existed...

***

The next morning, the school doctor who came to work on time stood outside the health center, picked up the doorknob that fell in the corridor, opened the locked door with the key, and walked into the messy place.

The bright sunlight shone on Gao Shide's face through the iron window, and only those who had slept satisfactorily opened their eyes, and saw the man standing at the end of the bed with arms crossed.

"Shot?"

Pei Shouyi looked at the two people lying on the bed with his eyes watching the show.

"Shh."

The person who had woken up nervously pressed his left index finger to his lips, signaling that if he had something to say, he should go outside and say it. However, Pei Shouyi still folded his arms and did not intend to move. After saying the word "please", the man turned around and walked outside.

"hiss……"

After Pei Shouyi left, Gao Shide frowned, and wanted to withdraw the arm that was lent to Zhou Shuyi as a pillow, but the result of long-term blood circulation was that everything from the elbow to the fingertips was numb and unable to exert force, so he could only use his right hand Hold the left arm, and finally slowly retract the arm from under the opponent's neck.

Looking at the sleeping person with his back to him with nostalgic eyes, he pampered Zhou Shuyi's hair on his cheeks behind his ears, lowered his body and slowly approached him, kissed the warm cheek with trembling lips devoutly, and lowered his voice, Using the deep voice that was praised twice the night before, whispered...

"It is not a joke to say that I like you; it is also true to say that I will sneak in. You said that the person I love is very lucky, but unfortunately you will never know that luck has always belonged to you...Zhou Shuyi, I like it you."

Then he got up and got out of bed, closed the curtain to prevent interference, went outside, and went to the warehouse with the man waiting in the corridor to get the medicines and gauze needed by the health center.

"..."

The person lying on the bed opened his eyes after the curtain was drawn, and touched the kissed cheek with his fingers sticking out of the quilt, lost in thought.

***

Classroom

"Oh, why are you here so early today? The sun is coming out from the west!"

As soon as Fang Zhengwen stepped into the classroom, he saw his buddies already sitting in their seats, but those who arrived early were holding their chins with their hands in a daze.

"Zhou Shuyi, you were very disrespectful yesterday! You actually said you were bored and went home first." "Shan, and. 氵, タ"

The club cadre who followed Fang Zhengwen into the classroom sat down in front of Zhou Shuyi and complained.

"That's to say, thanks to the fact that Yuxin and I were thinking about how to scare you, but we didn't wait for you at all."

In order to make the effect more realistic, Jiang Yuxin, who is the master of the show, also bought special-effect plasma for filming. Whenever a coward comes in, he sprays the plasma on his face.

The speaker didn't notice the buddy's ecstasy, but remembered the scope of the exam that the professor mentioned in class yesterday, so he looked at the male classmate who came with him and asked.

"Do you have any notes from yesterday's class? Let me copy them."

"Of course not, I didn't even bring my textbooks."

"You still have the nerve to talk about it." Fang Zhengwen gave up his plan to borrow notes from the other party, turned his head to look at the person sitting on the right, picked up Zhou Shuyi's textbook that was spread out on the table, and said, "Shuyi, lend me your notes."

Only then did Zhou Shuyi come back to his senses, looking at the stolen textbook in wonder, "What notes?"

"The professor said yesterday that the final exam will take the exam."

"Oh."

Looking at the good buddies who were busy copying the content of the class, Zhou Shuyi pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to say.

"Zhengwen, please ask Yuxin if there are any social activities in the department or other departments recently."

"Why, do you want to have a girlfriend?"

The person in the blue and white plaid shirt looked sideways at his best friend with an abnormal attitude. "Yes, welcome to introduce."

"So suddenly?"

In the past, this guy was indifferent to girls other than Jiang Yuxin, and he had nothing to do with social activities. Why did he suddenly want to meet girls?

Zhou Shuyi squinted at Fang Zhengwen, and said unhappily: "Who told you to always flash in front of me, of course I will flash back."

"Idiot! For this reason?"

"Please."

Clasped palms together, looking at each other pleadingly.

"Okay, I'll ask her for you."

After confirming that Fang Zhengwen was willing to help, Zhou Shuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaned his body against the back of the chair, looked at the other students who entered the classroom one after another, propped his chin with his hands again, and was in a daze.

***

next day

At noon, the students who finished their morning classes walked out of the campus one after another and went to eat at a restaurant near the school.

Zhou Shuyi was wearing a black T-shirt, rubbing his hands for a while, drawing circles with his fingers along the rim of the glass, and looking at the door of the restaurant from time to time, waiting for someone nervously and expectantly.

A few minutes later, a girl with dyed brown hair walked into the restaurant wearing a long dress. The waiter standing at the front desk was asking if she had an appointment. The girl had already seen the person she was looking for and waved to him. The waiter led me down to the table.

"Senior, have you been waiting long?"

The girl brushed her long hair behind her ears, sat opposite Zhou Shuyi across the table, and asked with a smile.

"No." Zhou Shuyi swallowed, and said nervously but politely: "Just order whatever you want, I'll treat you."

"Okay, thank you senior."

He Jiajing smiled shyly. In order to have dinner with her favorite senior, she not only specially bought a brand new suit, but also put on light makeup, just to leave a perfect impression on the other party.

The phone in his trousers pocket vibrated when he received a message. Zhou Shuyi took out his phone and looked at the text message on it.

'Where are you?We didn't make an appointment to have dinner together, did you forget? '

It was a text message from Gao Shide.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Shaking his head to the girl, he put the phone screen down on the table and said with a smile, "Have you figured it out? What do you want to eat?"

"I'll take another look."

"Take your time, don't rush."

Not as comfortable as being with Audio-Technica? Not having the mutual choking with Liu Bingwei, and completely different from when facing Gao Shide, deliberately slowing down the speaking speed? Deliberately gentle tone? Deliberately non-urging coping methods...

Everything is very deliberate.

He Jiajing happily took out her mobile phone, and held up the photos that finally succeeded after taking selfies countless times, in front of Zhou Shuyi: "You guys are all good swimmers, so I also want to take photos of swimming at the beach, seniors, look! "

Faced with the senior who secretly liked for a long time but had no chance to get close, she tried her best to find topics that the other party would be interested in so that the atmosphere would no longer be awkward.

If it wasn't for sister Yuxin who proposed that Senior Storyteller wanted to meet girls, otherwise I would always be one of the members of the swimming team cheering in the auditorium during the competition, and it would be impossible to share one-on-one with my male god like now. for lunch.

"good."

It was just a topic that was finally opened, but only a few words were obtained.Sensing the reluctance of the other party, he changed the subject and asked.

"Otherwise, how about we go to watch baseball? I usually watch games when I have nothing to do, and I like to go to the scene to cheer."

"can."

"Or shall we go bowling?"

"all good."

The more and more boring conversation made Zhou Shuyi's smile gradually stiffen, so he had to call the waiter to interrupt the girl's eloquent proposal by ordering food.

"Excuse me, I want to order food."

"Okay, what would you like to order?"

"I want a set meal, the appetizer is..."

The waiter concentrated on copying the customer's order, He Jiajing looked a little embarrassed, but still had a big smile on her face, watching the male god she admired closely.

***

library

In the school library, Gao Shide was sitting in the self-study area, looking at the unreadable messages on the screen of his mobile phone, and suddenly saw Fang Zhengwen and Jiang Yuxin walking from the door, so he moved away from his chair and walked over.

"Do you know where Shuyi is?"

"..."

Fang Zhengwen and Jiang Yuxin glanced at each other, and Jiang Yuxin looked at Gao Shide with an expression of not knowing whether to tell the truth.

"Actually... Shuyi, he..."

Jiang Yuxin hesitated for a while, and then said that Zhou Shuyi asked her if she had any social activities, so she introduced the school girl to him.

"I have a school girl who has liked Shuyi for a long time, so I want to take this opportunity to let them know each other. You have gotten very close to Shuyi recently, you... Aren't you friends?"

"Yes, it's friends... We are very good, friends." Gao Shide lowered his gaze, and the voice of his answer seemed to persuade himself, convincing himself to accept the impossible option: "Thank you for telling me where Shuyi is."

Lost and walked back to the original seat, sat on the chair and flipped through the books spread out on the table, but his eyes were always fixed on the mobile phone next to him, fixed on the unreadable message.

friend……

Yes!

They can only be friends.

***

restaurant

In the restaurant, the girl was still talking endlessly, but the person sitting across the table was listening more and more dazedly.

"Shrimp is my favorite. How about you, senior? Do you like it?"

"like."

After Zhou Shuyi answered mechanically, he picked up a grilled shrimp with his chopsticks and put it on his plate.He Jiajing thought that she must be not active enough, so the senior didn't respond, so she decided to express her thoughtfulness more actively, so she picked up the fattest grilled shrimp, peeled off the shell and handed it to the other party.

"Senior, here you are!"

"..."

Zhou Shuyi raised his head, looked at the girl with a sweet smile, and remembered that there was a person who would pick out the biggest shrimp, peel off the shell, and put it on his plate.

On the way back to school from the restaurant, He Jiajing was still chattering, while Zhou Shuyi responded incongruously.Several times the girl has changed the topic, but the boy is still answering the question raised before.

"Senior, are you feeling unwell?"

In front of the school gate, He Jiajing stopped, caring and asking the seniors who didn't talk much no matter whether they were eating or walking back to school.

"It's okay, you still have class in the afternoon, go to the classroom quickly."

"Then... if possible, let's go together next time──"

He Jiajing bit her lip, mustering up the courage to propose an invitation for the next date, but the person who was always thinking about other things saw the girl standing in front of her as someone else.

A face that is handsome? gentle? caring.

"I do not want!"

The blurted refusal, resisting the answer that appeared faintly but was denied by reason.

However, these three words were interpreted by the girl who had been looking for topics to please the other party for several hours, but was always ignored by the male god, as a rejection of the date invitation, so she stepped on Zhou Shuyi's foot and said angrily.

"Forget it! Anyway, you don't want to date me at all. I still have classes, so I'm leaving first. Thank you senior for inviting me to dinner."

After the girl dropped these words, she turned and left with her hair shaking, leaving the bewildered man screaming on the spot holding his sore right foot.

Zhou family

Known as the Steinway piano that allows pianists to fully develop and realize their dreams, the black painted mirror reflects the furnishings in the room.

Sitting on the piano chair, Zhou Shuyi let his fingertips walk on the keys, playing Chopin's etude 10 No. [-] "Farewell", also known as "Sorrow".

This song is the one my mother played most often. It used to be the etude for the soundtrack of "The One Hundred and One Proposal". Lines───

I will not die, because I love you, so I will not die.

Let "One Hundred and One Marriage Proposal" become an unsurpassed classic in the hearts of drama fans.

'Mum secretly told you, your dad used this song when he proposed to me.And said that if one of us had to leave sooner, he hoped he'd be the one to get me out alive.Because those who leave have no feeling, but those who are left have to bear the pain of loss.Say, Xiao Yi, isn't your old-fashioned and serious dad very romantic? 'My mother's words became a prophecy.

The illness took away not only the time he should have had with his mother, but also his father's few smiles; leaving only the longing accumulated in his heart over the years.

As the notes flowed, the interaction with a certain person during these days kept appearing in my mind...

'And you?What would you do if the person you liked liked someone else? '

'I'm going to sabotage it, take advantage of it. '

The tone was joking, but the eyes were very serious when he spoke.

That person is not a warm and harmless man in the eyes of others. For the desired goal, he can always set a plan and overcome difficulties until he succeeds.

'The person you have a crush on is that school doctor?No wonder he even knows where he puts things.How long have you liked him? '

'What I like...is you. '

'oh.What?you like me?How can it be? '

'Yeah, how is it possible...'

'So you're kidding? '

'Of course it's a joke, isn't it?Who told you to make me and Pei Shouyi a pair. ''Stingy, don't say it if you don't say it, hum. '

'Being able to regard shortcomings as strengths is indeed true love. '

'Speaking of loyalty is still an advantage. '

Thinking back now, what Gao Shide said was arrogant? Arrogant?

Isn't it him?

Still stuck in it, because when a boy falls in love with another boy, it is doomed that this secret love will not have any results.

Use the illusion of friendship to pack real emotions, stand in the position of a friend and look at the person you like, like
