looking back inadvertently

Liang He is no stranger to this little trick of enlivening the atmosphere, and he has participated in similar forms at the company's annual meeting.He wasn't interested, but it wouldn't matter if he hated it. To refuse at such a time would be to lose face, and a good lively atmosphere would turn into a cold one, so it wouldn't be worth spoiling everyone's interest.

So Liang He walked through the crowd and walked onto the stage through the winding path that everyone gave up.There were guests who left early in the front row, so Shen Zhe found a seat and sat down. Although it was still relatively behind, it was facing the center of the stage.

Adults are as serious as children. Liang He was watching other people's games in the audience just now, and the participants basically had a competitive mentality, and no one would let anyone else.If you win, you can get two movie tickets, which is not a very attractive prize. Perhaps the word "prize" itself is full of magic, and even the least value is worth fighting for.

Liang He didn't have such a competitive spirit, he really wanted to get back to the audience as soon as possible, and it didn't matter if he was eliminated.However, the subsequent development far exceeded his expectations.

The young man who was his opponent in the first round looked a few years older than him, and because of his impatience, the movements of his feet were out of order.Liang He had a relaxed mind, with an attitude of playing casually, but inadvertently stepped on several balloons of the opponent, successfully advanced, and passed all the way to the "finals".

The opponent in the final was a middle-aged man who was a bit fat. He might have won through strength, but he didn't have much advantage against a young man like Liang He who was more flexible and quick to react.After just one minute, Liang He narrowly won by a single balloon.

After the middle-aged man was frustrated, he made a leaving speech to the audience through the host's microphone: "I thought it was okay..." He turned his head to look at Liang He, and said embarrassedly, "It's still a young man sharp!"

"It's great to be able to enter the finals. If I were to ask for it, I would definitely be pk in the first round." The host smoothed things over, patted the participant on the shoulder, and watched him off the stage. "Come on, let's interview the champion." This player."

He walked to the center of the stage again, and handed the microphone to Liang He: "Our handsome guy doesn't seem to be surprised at all, are you usually this cool?"

"No," Liang He smiled lightly, "I didn't expect that."

"Didn't expect to be the first?" The host showed an exaggerated expression on purpose, "Just for fun, and then accidentally knocked someone else off, right?"

"En." Liang He nodded, and the audience roared with laughter.

"He's still a straight boy, the contestant just heard you say that he was going to explode," the host joked, "Okay, let's not talk about that, we have a small gift for this competition, not many, two Movie tickets, you know?"

"know."

"Then can I ask you, who do you plan to watch the movie with?"

"I—" Liang He's eyes naturally drifted to the audience.Shen Zhe changed positions, but he still saw each other at a glance.

The host was quick-witted and immediately noticed the clue: "Your girlfriend?"

Not a girlfriend.

"My love." Liang He's calm voice came through the microphone, enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

There were similar jokes and gossips in the previous session, both the participants and the host were all joking; but Liang He's answer was very solemn, like an oath at a wedding scene, and the audience even fell silent for a while.

"Wow," the host's tone became exaggerated again after hearing his words. After all, young boys nowadays rarely address their girlfriends or partners like this. "It seems that my lover is here too, right?"

The people below looked at each other, but none of the girls raised their hands.No one would have guessed that the "lover" Liang He was talking about was a boy.

And the other protagonist, who made everyone curious, was sitting quietly in the back row at this time, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looking intently at the stage.No one noticed him, except the young man who was also smiling in the center of the stage.

"It seems like a shy girl." The host probably thought that the other party was embarrassed to raise her hand, and didn't force it. "Then, is there anything we youngsters want to say to our lover?"

"Yes," Liang He breathed into the microphone, looking past the crowd again, "I want to say, thank you for being with me."

After coming out of the mall for a long time, Shen Zhe's ears were still red, and he kept his head down.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Liang He asked a little nervously, "Am I really stupid like that just now?"

"How could it be?" Shen Zhe finally raised his face, "It's the first time I've discovered that you are so good at talking."

When he was holding the microphone, Liang He thought of some pictures, some clear and some blurry: in the physical education class of the third year of senior high school, he was standing on the dilapidated wall, and Shen Zhe looked up from below and said, "I'm with you"; In my apartment in September this year, he said 'I am with you'...they were not together at that time.

Liang He thinks the word "accompany" is more beautiful than "love".Realizing "love" may require a struggle, but "companionship" is pure, just not wanting someone to be alone.

So he said, thank you for being with me.

The stage was full of excitement and enthusiasm, and now facing Shen Zhe alone, Liang He was also a little embarrassed, and forced himself to be calm: "Is this moving?"

"En." Shen Zhe stared at him intently.

He began to protest: "Why do you keep looking at me?"

"You know what I'm thinking?"

"Thinking about what?"

Shen Zhe stood on tiptoe slightly, her lips almost pressed against his ear: "I really want to have sex with you right now!"

They did that thing a few times later, Liang He immediately understood, and blushed in a low voice: "Not today."

"why?"

"It's too late today, you have to get up early tomorrow," they would only think about it when they have plenty of time and they are not too tired, "Besides, how do you eat so much spicy food tonight?"

After Liang He seriously analyzed the situation, Shen Zhe smiled with a "poof" and his shoulders trembled slightly: "Why are you so sincere?"

Liang He woke up suddenly: "Are you joking?"

"So what," Shen Zhe took his arm, "Didn't you also tease me?"

"Small belly and chicken intestines."

"It's called tit for tat."

……

The two walked across the zebra crossing talking and laughing. After ten o'clock, there were not many buses still running, and they were going to take a taxi back.

The atmosphere of Christmas Eve has not cooled down, and many young people are still wandering on the street in groups.

"Huh—" Shen Zhe breathed out into his gloved palms, "This year is going to pass again."

"Yes." A few days later it will be the New Year in the Gregorian calendar, and the next month will be the Spring Festival.

Because it has not been disclosed to the parents of both parties, this Spring Festival can only be separated first.Shen Zhe went back to his parents' house.On Liang He's side, his father was not in China, and he did not ask him to return to the United States. He made an appointment with Yuan Jing to reunite with his aunt.

However, one day in early January, he suddenly received a call from his father: "Liang He, do you have any arrangements for the New Year?"

"It's nothing special." Liang He leaned on the back of the sofa, and casually glanced at the balcony. Shen Zhe was collecting clothes, and the figure swayed a few times, "My aunt asked me to go to her place."

After a few seconds of silence, Liang Zheng said, "If I want you to come to the United States, is it convenient for you?"

"Go to the United States," Liang He didn't think he made the call simply because he wanted to see himself, "it's okay, then why didn't you say it before?"

"I... changed my mind."

"Is there something wrong with you?"

"Well, Liang He," Liang Zhengchang breathed out, "I have something to tell you, so wait for you to come."

"Good things and bad things, hesitating?"

"It's a good thing for me, but for you—" Liang Zheng's tone softened, "I think you will understand."
